Change Makes Change

January 24, 2008

As the concept of Clean Money is the solution to transforming the electoral process, it is also the solution to supporting the progressive movement. It is possible for PDA to become an example to all progressive organizations on the viability of Clean Money contributions, not just for campaigns but also for progressive organizing.

Let it begin with the PDA community. Let every member of PDA resolve to contribute a small amount of change each month so that we can create big changes politically from now on. Lets us end the hustle for funding from outside sources and become financially self-reliant.

There are only two ways PDA will be sustained financially:
1. Through large individual donations from a small group of donors with the financial means to do so, or
2. Through a large number of small contributions from EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF PDA.

If only 10% of the PDA membership joins ¢hange makes Change, PDA could sustain itself just through its membership.

10%--that is our goal

Here's how it works.

You contribute a minimum of $5.00 per month to PDA
1000 members contributing at $5.00 per month = $60,000 a year for PDA
10,000 members contributing at $5.00 per month = $600,000 a year for PDA
With a membership of over 100,000, PDA should be able to sustain itself with a large number of small contributions.

It all adds up.

Joining “¢hange makes Change” is easy and your information will be safeguarded.

- To get started right now, here is all you have to do.

 

• CLICK HERE to go to use your credit card to set up a sustainers account that will automatically charge your credit card $5.00 a month until you cancel it. (You will also find information for making your payment by check, and options for quarterly or annual contributions.)

If you can contribute more, please do so - $10, $15, $20, $25 a month, or more!.

Here is what every member of “¢hange makes Change” will receive:

1. Membership in the PDA “¢hange makes Change” sustainer community.
2. No emails from PDA asking you for money for an entire year!
3. Monthly updates on what PDA is doing inside and outside the Democratic Party.
4. Special Conference Calls with PDA National Board Members and notable friends.
5. Discounts on PDA merchandise and PDA national event tickets.

Know that when members of PDA, in Washington and in all 50 states, walk into their elected officials' offices they walk in with your support to move the progressive agenda forward. For no more than the cost of one cup of fancy coffee per month, your contribution will help produce signage, buttons, stickers, letter campaigns, meetings with Senators and Congresspersons in your district and in DC and so much more. The knowledge that you are playing your part in the great progressive movement leading our nation forward is your recognition of just how much PDA is worth.

Your small ¢hange will make big political CHANGE possible. This is why you should be a ¢hange makes Change sustainer. Imagine the possibilities when we all invest in each other.

You play the most important part in this endeavor. PDA and your democracy depend upon your participation. Click here to join, today!
