Too Many Lemons to Carry
Dear Friends of Awate and Negarit (please scroll down for details),
When we launched the 2024 fundraising in January, we were (and still are) counting on the thousands of fans, friends and colleagues to chip in. Fundraising is the most difficult part of the tasks.
So far, only 52 friends have responded; the ratio of those who responded compared to the number of fans, friends, and users is negligible. We do not believe the rest are not interested in supporting us, but they may not think it’s important, are busy, or the routines of life hold them back. Please consider this a friendly reminder.
As always, we are grateful for the few who always are at the forefront and supportive. We also hope the rest understand how difficult it’s to continue operating without your support. Hopefully, you will realize that your encouragement and goodwill would be more effective when translated into real action that will help us perform with reasonable ease. As you can see, the target is not too ambitious, and if you act, it can be achieved in no time.
Please note that our budget of $14,000 covers only the basic operational expenses. Below is the list of contributions from January to August 10, 2024.
