Chris,
We hope this finds you safe and well. These are incredibly crazy times, and when we at the Kremlin Annex started protesting outside of the White House over 621 days ago we never thought anything would complicate protesting more than the National Park Service.
I want to be direct as possible in this email. At the barebones, our organizing outside the White House costs $350 a week for the lead part-time organizer we employ. That is without any of the costs of entertainment, reimbursements, and so on. I am writing you because we want to make sure we can cover the costs of our lead organizer during this virus for at least the next month. My hope is to raise $1,400 this weekend and be sure that we will be able to pay the key individual who continues to coordinate our protests day after day. She has been out there since day one and I want to do all I can to make sure the work she has been so passionate about and worked so hard towards does not fail her because of something outside of our control.
Please consider chipping in to help us raise $1,400 towards bottom line organizer costs for the next 30 days.
Thank you for all of your continued support. As we thought about this there was really no ideal way to go about communicating our need to continue to fundraise and we want to be as up front as possible.
We are incredibly grateful.
Sincerely,
John and the Gang at the Kremlin Annex
