Hello IndiMarin volunteers!
We are very excited to announce a new program that has the potential for MAJOR impact...but only with YOUR help! We're calling it our "One & Done" Plan for Strategic AND Convenient Political Giving. We encourage all of our volunteers to consider giving, AND ALSO to share the concept with people in their personal networks!
We're especially bullish on this new effort after receiving a broad range of VERY enthusiastic responses from the short list of people with whom we market-tested the concept.
Here are just a few sample reactions:
"Your plan is an answer to my prayers!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT AND WILL SEND IT OUT TO EVERYBODY I KNOW who wants to donate but gets slammed with 10 + email donation requests a day, AND ARE NOT SURE THAT THEY ARE WHO THEY SAY THEY ARE!"
"Absolutely brilliant donation system!!!"
"Great idea! I'm one of those people who can't give to everyone and I have a hard time deciding who to give to. This takes the worry out of it."
"I’m so glad to hear about our One and Done approach to political donations. Like all of us, I’ve also been flooded with campaign donation solicitations. I’ve just donated to One and Done and yes, now I can unsubscribe from all the other emails… GUILT-Free!"
So here's the concept:
As Democrats, we all want to do our part to help keep the House and Senate blue in November, right? Yet, it can be hard to know how to strategically allocate our available dollars for political donations. To address this issue, and to help prevent potential donors from sitting on the sidelines due to “information-overload,” IndiMarin has done the homework for us.
We've created this single ActBlue link where donations are divided equally between two underfunded House candidates in toss-up races, an underfunded Senate candidate in a toss-up race, and an organization that supports grassroots work in key districts.
More specifically, donations will support in equal parts: 1) Christy Smith for Congress in CA District 27, 2) Rudy Salas for Congress in CA District 22, 3) Mandela Barnes for Senate in Wisconsin, and 4) Airlift, an organization that vets and funds grassroots organizers In battleground areas, largely focused on communities of color. Further details here.
Whether your budget allows for $20, $200 or $2000, you can make a contribution at this single link and feel good that you have done your part to help Keep Congress Blue in ’22. A nice perk of this "one and done" approach is that you can now unsubscribe, GUILT-FREE, from all the other countless fundraising emails that are likely filling up your inbox. It's WIN/WIN!
No portion of the donations go to IndiMarin or ActBlue and you can opt out of receiving any emails or texts as a result of your donation.
Many of you may have already selected your forms of political giving, and if so, thank you for your generous donations! But if not, please consider giving as part of this strategic campaign.
We hope you will also share this approach within your personal circles. Based on the early reactions we received, your friends are likely to be grateful for a more efficient and effective way to donate politically. Here is a template email that you can customize and send out within your sphere of influence. You can also post the ActBlue link to social media.
Once again, here is the link to our One & Done initiative. Please consider donating and then sharing this approach with friends and family! We can make a real difference by supporting these under-funded candidates in winnable races!
