‘Militant’ readers help to boost
SWP Party-Building Fund
 
BY TONY LANE  
The SWP Party-Building Fund stands just ahead of schedule. Chicago’s second raise brings the sum of local quotas to $2,850 over the $100,000 goal.

Supporters of the fund in local areas are working to close the gap in pledges and payments collected. Clay Dennison reported from Seattle that a contributor mailed in an additional contribution, putting pledges there several hundred dollars over their goal.

In New York, a Militant reader sent in a check with a note saying “Thanks for the continuing coverage in the Militant newspaper — Awesome.” In Chicago and Seattle, fund organizers won contributions in response to mailings sent out to long-term subscribers.

Local areas have won new contributors as they expand the readership to the Militant. Jacquie Henderson reports from Omaha that four workers they met this past weekend going door to door gave contributions, bringing the number of first-time contributors there to 21.

The final chart will include all payments received by Dec. 23.

Readers of the Militant can send contributions to the SWP office nearest you (see directory on page 8) or directly to the SWP National Office at 306 W. 37th St., 10th floor, New York, NY 10018.
