Door to Freedom is successfully doing limited local (US) networking, improving our website, creating many documents for sharing
To go to the next step we need one or more networking coordinators. Pledges for $50,000 for a year will be enough to hire a FullTime European network coordinator.
We are doing limited networking in the US and would also like a US networker, but I am in touch with about a dozen organizations and maybe we can do that through our existing organizations. What is needed is worldwide networking so that all the freedom organizations can be identified, given info and brochures and work together to kill the power grabs by the WHO and UN. Some of the Substack money went to a defense fund, but I anticipate having $60,000 from substack this year for door to freedom plus $22,150 in additional donations and pledges for the organization.
Here is where I stand right now TONIGHT with substack donations.
Over 3% of subscribers are also contributors, which is really wonderful!!!
We are applying for the 501c3 status, but it could take a year before we get it. Donations will be retroactively tax deductible when that happens, but cannot be claimed for tax purposes until then.
How would you like to make contributions? I am not knowledgeable about the current payment systems. Should I do paypal? I started a give send go. Is that a good one?
I really want to hire someone in the next ten days, before she gets snapped up by someone else—but need some pledges to be able to make it work. Especially since I won’t be able to see patients to bring in money. Please let me know if you can help.
Definitely a hard "NO" to PayPal. Do a quick search in DuckDuckGo on "PayPal Censorship" and you'll see why.
From everything I've heard, GiveSendGo is a good option, although I'll be interested in what others have to say.
For other one-time donation options, you could consider:
> Stripe
> Ko-fi
> Buy-Me-A-Coffee
Not sure what platforms are best for international donations. Will look forward to other reader feedback.
In the meantime, thank you, thank you, for the heroic work you are doing, Meryl! We are all deeply indebted, and immensely grateful!
Dr Nass,
Am I reading correctly that you are looking for NEW pledges now totaling $50,000 to hire your identified person?
I am a paid subscriber, but would pledge an additional $500 for this purpose.
You have 30,000+ subscribers but only 3% donate? This should be a piece of cake. Each at $5 would yield $150,000.
