To everyone who has already given money to support ScheerPost — thank you. Your generosity keeps ScheerPost alive and independent, and we’re deeply grateful. But truth be told, our latest fundraising drive has been a bust, only raising a disappointing 10 percent of the $25,000.we need to help carry us through the winter. That’s despite having more than three million readers of our articles worldwide this past year. 
 
ScheerPost runs on a shoestring budget, and one way or another, we will keep it alive. I don’t take a salary, and my wife Narda Zacchino, former masthead editor for the LA Times and San Francisco Chronicle, also works pro bono as ScheerPost’s editor-in-chief. Every dollar raised goes toward paying our staff, supporting veteran writers, and mentoring the next generation of journalists committed to socially conscious media. Wish us a Happy New Year by making a tax-deductible donation. Your support truly makes the difference.
 
With sincere gratitude,
 
Robert Scheer and the entire ScheerPost team
