There is still about 28 hours left before this first reporting period ends. I'm sure we will have a few more $ come in before the cut off.

Donate to Bernie through our DU Act Blue Link Here: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/duforbernie

Our daily average in the time is $86.28. Average donation was $28.76.

a total of $20 to Bernie! And if I weren't having trouble with my money right now, I'd give more. Until then, I talk about Bernie and spread the word as far and wide as I can.

It was a very small amount, and I hope to do so again, but I'm losing my job in a month so I don't know if I'll be able to.

First off, I donated to Bernie Sanders the week the good Senator kicked off his campaign but I did not do so through DU. A couple of weeks ago I donated to Free Speech TV via Thom Hartmann. My account spending has all but reached it's limit this month, my bank even gave me the stink-eye when I tried to withdraw some splurge money today! Next month otoh my Debit Acct replenishes, I could donate a bit then. If that's ok, I'll donate a little at that time but otherwise I'm currently tapped out sorry.

I've been contributing directly through Act Blue-- didn't know there was a DU group. I'll look into making my donations through the link you provided. Tomorrow is the first of the month!
