Fundraising Update – Great Start But Still a Long Way to Go!

The support from our readers has been humbling. Thank you for helping to facilitate this transition and to ensure that GraniteGrok can move forward instead of backward. We’ve passed 20% of the goal, but we still have a ways to go.

We’d like to get to 25% or better by the end of June, but this initial lift means I can start as soon as my layoff is official. Ideally, we’ll have raised more in the intervening weeks to keep me in a position to run things, and we hope you can continue to help. Can we get to 50% by the end of July and 75% at the end of August?

I feel confident we can get there from here, but we’ll need help to fill all 50 stars on our fundraising American Flag.

If you know folks who might support independent media, let them know in Facebook Groups or town committee meetings, anywhere you congregate with like-minded folks. Independent media is an invaluable resource worth supporting, and I know not everyone is wired to give a donation pitch, but why not tell them why you support it – why you read it or share it?

What does a thriving alternative to corporate media and opinion mean to you?

How about a venue that publishes your op-eds and tells your stories when the fourth column ignores you or says no? We go to your events and help to promote your activism. And we plan to do more of that with someone full-time at the tiller.

GraniteGrok, like New Hampshire, is surrounded—an Island in a rising sea of Democrat  Socialists in politics and media.

And yes, it’s weird doing this, asking for support, but it’s something we need to do to ensure that GraniteGrok can grow and expand its reach. The next most important election in US history looms. We can’t afford to dial it back, but that’s what happens if we can’t fund this thing.

And we push back on both sides, every side, every day, to defend limited government and personal liberty.

If you have already given this year, thank you – please try to spread the word if you can. If you have not donated, we hope you will. We’d be very near our goal if everyone on our newsletter list gave just $25.00. If every reader who stopped by in just one year gave $25.00, we could fund a few years’ worth of full-time salary.

We are grateful for every donation regardless of size, but an ask like this inevitably requires a few generous benefactors. If that’s you, let us know what you can do to help. And even if that is not you, we welcome any support, even if it is just reading and sharing content from GraniteGrok.com.

To donate, go to our GiveSendGo campaign page or the website donation portal (transaction or credit card fees may apply).

If you prefer to donate by check (no fees), please email steve@granitegrok.com, and I’ll give you the official Grok mailing address.

Thanks so very much for reading and, if you can, for giving.
