DU Hillary Group fund raising on Act Blue


This fund raiser belongs to your Hillary Group. IF you want some fancy stuff I can't do, send me some help. Let me know about any simple text changes like on the donation confirmation letter. I can handle that.

Enjoy,

OS

Donate through DU for Hillary at Act Blue here:: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/duforhillary

Up to the moment info on the donor # and $ # is here: https://secure.actblue.com/entity/fundraisers/39658

Hillary's campaign uses Act Blue too. This just keeps a total of $ donated by DUers and friends.

All the donated $ to Hillary goes to Hillary except for the actual charge card fee by law: http://support.actblue.com/faq#q15

Fees all vendors pay to use your credit card from a vendors perspective: http://paysimple.com/credit_card_rates_explained.html

IF you give a tip it goes to Act Blue, the most successful Democratic $ raising PAC for their in house expenses like rent, payroll, IT, etc.

This needs to be pinned!

There are many ways to donate to Hillary, but for DUers this would be convenient, short and sweet!

18 more months of contributions -- that could be something!

Whenever I have $5 laying around, I'll know exactly what to do with it!

(not an endorsement of our present campaign financing practices, but if this is the game and 'they' made the rules, let's make 'them' pay!)

so any donations won't show on this page.

However, looks like she has raised some ActBlue money from other people.

Omaha Steve made significant improvements and added tons of features to our ActBlue DU account. This is that extra mile OS is known for!

If you don't know Steve and Marta - you're really missing the best of DU and how the internet makes this such a small world after all!

We have HRC contributors! Thank you!

The best is yet to come!

I really like ActBlue. I have a Super Pac!

It's so...21st century!

Just until Citizens United is overturned or legislated out.

Which requires Democrats in office!

But another reason I like ActBlue?

My personal inbox! I have email after email asking me to send money, send more money, money, money, money!

Earlier this week, Hillary campaign asked me to send "just $2" so they know I'm out here! Yesterday, they asked me to send "just $1." Along with every other group I ever responded to or sent money to, never-ending...Obama's campaign made this a science!

My ActBlue 'DU for Hillary' donations?

Not one email asking me for more! How do you spell relief?
