Black rectangle with the words 'thank you, rabble rousers'
Thank you for your continued support all year long!

Dear rabble rousers, 

Today is the final day of our summer fundraising campaign. 

We had an ambitious fundraising goal this year — and, thanks to you supporting us all summer long, we’ve made 80 per cent of this goal! 

In the final hours of our summer campaign, can you help us make our goal and raise $5000? 

We know this summer wasn’t easy for Canadians. We were met with some of the hottest-ever recorded temperatures, wildfires and community evacuations, and an all-time high cost of living. 

And all summer long, you proved to us how much you value rabble’s coverage (not only on these topics, but of much, much more) by rising up and gifting us with the donations you were able to. We know it wasn’t easy; so thank you. 

We want you to know that we take your support seriously; and we’re saying goodbye to summer with an even stronger determination to share the news and views that most matters to you. 

This fall, we’re looking forward to: 

  • Introducing a new Executive Director to lead our team and develop new relationships with new labour, activist and 2SLGBTQIA+ organizations;
  • Introducing a new Jack Layton Journalism for Change fellow to share national news through a social-justice lens; 
  • A return to some of rabble readers’ favourite series and panels including Courage My Friends and Off the Hill; 

And so much more. 

We can’t wait to have you along for the ride. After all, we couldn’t do it without you. 

Of course, even though our summer campaign wraps at midnight, that doesn’t mean your support is no longer needed. We need your support 365 days a year, and we are always accepting new monthly donors and one-time gifts. It’s never too late to become a rabble rouser. 

It takes hard work to deliver independent journalism – but it is a lot easier with our community backing us. Thank you to everyone who chipped in, shared the fundraising appeals and supported us on social media. Please continue spreading the good word of independent media. Together, we can uphold media democracy!

With gratitude,

Breanne Doyle, managing editor
