At the start of this year, as the incoming Obama administration threatened to enact its extreme pro-abortion, anti-life agenda, I made an urgent video fundraising appeal to you on behalf of the Register.
The National Catholic Register was struggling with a budget deficit, facing cutbacks just when we needed to do more, not less, in-depth reporting, to protect the religious freedom and moral values
threatened by the new regime.
I’m happy to say that loyal readers like yourself have responded generously to that appeal. We’re just over halfway towards our fundraising goal of $600,000 for 2009.
I’m also pleased to say that thanks to your generosity, the National Catholic Register this year was able to take a leading role in exposing and fighting off Obama’s anti-life measures.
On all the important “life issue” battlefronts of 2009 – the President’s controversial appearance at Notre Dame, his appointments to key policy posts, his policies on embryonic stem cell research and
conscience clauses for health care workers, his attempts to add euthanasia and abortion subsidies into health care reform, and much more – the Register has been your journalistic watchdog, providing
critical information and insights that were mostly overlooked or covered up by the secular media.
We’ve been tough on the Obama administration – but true to our Catholic principles, we’ve also been objective and fair. That’s why the Register was one of the Catholic newspapers invited to President
Obama’s roundtable with the Catholic press in July.
But our work is not over. The fight over health care reform, and other critical issues, continues.
And our financial struggle continues as well. We must still raise $300,000 more this year to make our budget, or face cutbacks in essential areas of our news reporting.
If you’ve given to the Register this year, I, and the rest of the Register staff, thank you. You’ve made our work possible.
If you’re not able to give at this time, I ask for your prayers, which are most important. Along with the grace of God, they sustain us in our work.
But if you are able to make a contribution to the work of the Register at this time, to help us reach our goal, I urge you to act now, by donating online by credit card. It’s safe and secure. You’ll find the
donation button on this page.
Thank you for taking the time to watch this fundraising message. Through your prayers, your energy, and your financial support, we can, together, help bring about a new springtime of faith.
Donations to Circle Media are tax-deductible.
