Four Directions has a new logo. I really like it!
We have $130 left on the Angel Match from yesterday – we will match any amount up to $130 on that one in order to finish it off. At that point, yesterday’s angel will add his $1,000 and we’ll be really close to $20,000 in the thermometer.
Then we’re back to a 6x match up to $50 per person when you post a comment with your donation amount.
Reminder: we have a new BJ Angel, everyone is eligible to be matched up to $50 per person, even if you have given previously.
Also, in case you missed it yesterday:
UncleEb asked in the comments if there was some good information that would make it easy for him to share a link – about Four Directions fundraising for Nevada – on Facebook or Twitter. So I put together a page (not a post, so it won’t have any comments) that you can easily share.
It includes a blurb from the Four Directions website, a short summary of what of how the Native vote they turned out for AZ in 2020 and in GA for the runoff was greater than the margin of victory. I also mention the external double-match, which means that all donations are multiplied by 3. And the thermometer, of course!

I put in $10 around 11:45 eastern time this morning.
oh, and I’m frist!

How long is this match open? Husband’s back surgery had a hiccup (MRSA !!!!) that set us back emotionally and certainly financially. Don’t want to miss the match but we are allwise clobbered the last few and the next few weeks.

I just put in $50 in honor of another good checkup at the oncologist with my cat. His chemo was supposed to put his cancer on pause, not cure it, but somehow it seems to have gone away entirely. I don’t really understand how the matching works, but if my $50 means they get more than $50, then that’s good!

@sab: Oh no! Is he having to do IV antibiotics? Those can be rough.

@sab: Hopefully this Four Directions fundraising will be done at some point this week.
Looks like we have $1,070 in angel matches left but even after that we have the double-match that Four Directions found, so Nevada still gets 3x your donation.
We also have some other exciting fundraising opportunities coming up, but this $25k effort will likely be the end of the matches until November.
But don’t worry a bit about not participating in this one! Medical stuff is expensive.

@KayInMD (formerly Kay (not the front-pager)): Your $50 turns into $300 because of the external double match+ the angel match.
What great news about your kitty! We are all celebrating with you.
WaterGirl
@sab: Holy shit I knew he was on antibiotics, but MRSA. Holy fuck, that’s scary.

I just gave 50$ for me, and threw $50 in for sab for the triple match.
And sab can pay it forward later.
WaterGirl
@CarolPW: Carol, that is so generous of you!
That’s $300 and $300 for the Nevada native vote.

Just tossed in $50 of my own, so $300 after all the multipliers.

In the furtherance of kicking baboon butts. The human variety.

Pitched in another $50 — thank you, WaterGirl, for keeping us up to date!
WaterGirl
@Anne Laurie: Thank you! And thanks to everyone who has donated!
We have completed yesterday’s angel match (!)
Our angel will be adding his $1,000 in the thermometer as soon as he gets out of his work meeting. At that point, we’ll hit the $20,000 mark!
We are $250 into today’s angel match.
There is $750 left on the current angel match.
edit: No one else commented on the new logo. Am I the only one who loves it?

@WaterGirl: It’s a great logo. :-)
Cheers,

@WaterGirl: I like it very much. There’s an elegance to it that you don’t always get with a logo.

Thank you for your dedication to the folks who are making a difference. The new logo is lovely. Donated a bit.

To my eye it’s not so much a ‘V’ as a checkmark ✅ which also works.
Fill the oval full of ink. Punch out any boxes forcefully. Check the box firmly. Leave no doubt.

Just want to say.. I think often about your loss of your beloved doggie and hope your are well. Again, thank you for all you do here.
WaterGirl
@daize: I was just thinking about Tucker today, though that’s probably true on most days. Appreciate you thinking of me!
mvr
Just put in $25. Not sure if there’s still a match around but I figured it was worth donating regardless.
WaterGirl
@mvr: Yes!
Even after your donation, we still have $745 of the 6x match going on.
lashonharangue
Just added $50. Hope there is still some angel match left.
WaterGirl
@lashonharangue: Yes! That’s $300 for Nevada!
$695 left!
