Our twice annual fundraiser at LouisianaVoice is now underway. Unlike some online news services, we don’t beg for money year-round. Just during April and September. We figure that’s about all you can stand of the begging for your hard-earned money.
But the truth is, we don’t allow advertisements (except those the platform hosts sneaks in without our permission; we have no control over those and we don’t get a cent from them) and we don’t have a paywall because we want as many people as possible to have access to the stories and perspectives we offer.
But there are costs and we do come to you twice a year to asked for your support. We don’t demand that you give what you can’t afford like some shameless televangelist. If you cannot afford to help, please don’t. We understand. But if you can, anything you can contribute will be appreciated.
Those giving $125 or more will get a signed copy one my newest books: Louisiana’s Rogue Sheriffs: A Culture of Corruption, or Bordello on the Bayou, based on the true story of the Baton Rouge Madam of a few years back. Please include your mailing address and your book preference when participating.
Just click on the yellow DONATE button to the right of this column to pay by credit card. You don’t have to have a PayPal account of your own to access my account for payment. Or, if you prefer, you can sent a check to: LouisianaVoice, P.O. Box 922, Denham Springs, Louisiana 70727.
As always, thank you for your continued support of LouisianaVoice for these past 10 years.
