Hi Ben,

I wanted to be sure you saw Curt’s message from earlier today (copied below). I know you’re busy so I’ll keep this brief.

Maine Public counts on support like yours to fuel the trusted programming you need.

Please consider making a powerful investment in Maine Public this Giving Tuesday: mainepublic.org/givingtuesday.

We are only 20 donors away from reaching our goal of 200 to unlock $20,000!

Due to that amazing response, we are releasing an additional $2,000 from the Member Challenge Fund, so gifts made to this campaign before midnight will be matched up to $22,000! 

In this season of giving and throughout the year, you count on Maine Public for independent news, your favorite PBS and NPR programs, and unique local content. To bring you the nonprofit journalism and programs you love, we count on people like you to double your support for Maine Public today.

Don't miss your chance to get matched!

Dear Ben,

It’s Giving Tuesday, and your gift can go even further. We need 200 donors to unlock an additional $20,000 in funding from the Member Challenge Fund.

Maine Public remains defunded, not defeated. Because of you, our mission continues. Your help produces trusted, unbiased reporting across Maine, thoughtful conversations shared on Maine Calling and Essential Salt, visual storytelling from our series Maine Explained and Assignment: Maine, delight in Jazz Tonight and Songbook, and so much more.

You empower Maine Public’s mission of public service - to deliver facts and context, bridge divides, and build vital connections. This public service relies on support like yours for everything we do.

This is why I’m writing to you now. Today, your support will help unlock additional funding.

This Giving Tuesday, be part of the group of 200 donors needed to help unlock $20,000 in funding from the Member Challenge Fund. Donate now to help unlock this funding!

There’s no comparison for the daily reward of Maine Public: inspiring, entertaining, and trusted. Give today to help unlock $20,000 in funding.

With heartfelt thanks,
