We received this wonderful message from reader Art_DogCT in April:
There is little more important to me in my world than Naked Capitalism, so I am keen to see NC enjoy part of my windfall, too. Let me know what you think, please!
Art_DogCT’s suggested using his $5,000 gift to fund a Double Your Donation challenge. Needless to say, we are absolutely delighted to oblige. We are, at the Japanese would say, flattered and honored that he is dedicating a healthy portion of his good fortune with worthy causes, and that this community ranks so high in his priorities.
He will match the next 50 donations of $100 (and multiples of $100) up to their match amount). Make his terrific offer a speedy success by going to our donation page now!
We thought we’d share some more missives of appreciation. From Deborah S:
Yves, you and your colleagues are my first and for the most part only trusted source of news.
I thank all of you from the bottom of my ex-Yank, in-Canada-for-decades heart!
From Keith C, in the spirit of Art_DogCTs gift:
That’s $200 from me and $50 from someone who would like to donate, but cannot.
From Roy P:
I read nc every day. I donate what I can. This is one of the only sources of truth I have followed for decades. Donate what you can, but donate SOMETHING!
From Keith H:
The check is for $250 this time. NC is simply indispensable. May it live long and prosper!
And readers have also said how much they enjoy the contributions of individual writers. For instance, from Balakirev:
Fascinating statistics. Thanks, Curro Jimenez. I especially appreciate the way you use the questions asked to arrive at nuanced answers.
You can make your contribution here, via check, debit or credit card, or PayPal or Clover or Wise. If you give by check (we very much like checks!), be sure to let us know by e-mailing us at yves@nakedcapitalism.com with “Dynamic Duo Donation Challenge” in the subject line.
Thanks to Art_DogCT for his generosity, and I hope readers will respond in kind.
And if $100 is a lot for you, don’t let that stop you from making a donation if you’ve been planning to but haven’t had time yet. Every contribution helps us meet our goals. And the other important way to help is by telling others about our work, whether in person to friends, family, and colleagues, or in social media like Facebook and Twitter. So I hope you’ll take him up on his fundraiser challenge in whatever way you can!
