Why This Blog & Fundraising Tool Site

After 35 years fighting for LGBT equality, I truly believe this: there has never been a more critical election for our community than the Presidential election that is on our doorstep. Everything — absolutely everything — we have fought for in the last 40 years is at stake. Trust me. There is nothing more important than the next three months of our lives. Nothing!

In less than 85 days, the nation will decide who our next President will be and we have the opportunity to play a major role in determining the outcome. We are more organized than ever before and we are giving record amounts of money, but we must give and raise more So lets go!! We must elect Barack Obama.

So — why this BLOG and fundraising tool site? We want to give you everything you need to easily raise money:

  1. Easy to absorb lists comparing the stark differences between Barack Obama (absolutely stellar) to John McCain (abysmal);
  2. Pre-designed digital postcards explaining how and why to contribute that you can forward to your contacts;
  3. Moving video clips to demonstrate Senator Obama’s commitment to the LGBT community and all that affects us;
  4. Clickable emails to forward to your friends and family so they can contribute, knowing that their gifts will be counted as coming from the LGBT Community.

In short, all the tools you need to make a difference are right here at your fingertips. Whether you do it from your desktop, or through an event or on the street, it is just important that you do it. It is only through our collective efforts that the reins of power will be handed to a true friend of the LGBT community - Barack Obama.

Thank you for your passion and commitment. With your help, we will win in November.
