This is rabble.ca's staff blog. Visit this blog regularly for updates about rabble, and comments and observations from staff members, with occasional visits by board members and volunteers. Our staff blog is represented by our website "mascot" Ruckus, the sock monkey, who joined us in 2006. Ruckus cheers us on through fundraising campaigns and membership drives, and reminds us to keep perspective in the midst of the challenges of running an independent media website.

Cross us off your 'to do' list -- join rabble now

| June 30, 2011

Dear friends:

You've been meaning to do it and now is the time. You can get us crossed off your "to do" list and become a member of rabble.ca right now. Our annual membership drive is coming to close on July 3 and this is our last appeal, a final friendly reminder.

It takes just a few minutes to become a member of rabble and make a real difference to our independent progressive media site. Sign up right here. 

During the federal election period alone we had over 350,000 individuals visit our site for news for the rest of us, but right now we have fewer than 300 new members from our membership drive and we need more.

Your monthly donation of $5, $8, $15, $25 or $50 means a lot to us at rabble. When you have a small budget like us, every dollar matters.

With your membership donation of at least $60/year ($5/month) you can receive a free subscription to one of more than a dozen leading Canadian independent magazines.
http://rabble.ca/about/membership including Alternatives, Briarpatch, Broken Pencil, Canadian Dimension, Corporate Knights, The Dominion, Fuse Magazine, Herizons, Middle East Report, Our Times, Ricepaper, This Magazine, Watershed Sentinel, Yes! and New Internationalist.

If you give at least $8/month we will also send you our new book Best of rabble.ca 2010 as an additional "thank you".
