LouisianaVoice normally holds two fundraisers each year – one in April and the other in September. I would have launched our September effort on Wednesday but Hurricane Ida had other ideas. My power went out at 8 p.m. on Sunday and didn’t come back on until 12:33 a.m. today, so I’ve been without Internet all week.
But now that we’re back up and running, it’s time to make our semi-annual pitch for funds to keep this boat afloat. Unlike the televangelist hucksters, I don’t need a bigger jet and I don’t reside in some palatial mansion with hot and cold running maids, a sauna, swimming pool, a private gym, or other amenities. I get from Point A to Point B in a 10-year-old Nissan pickup truck that’s more than adequate. But I do have the luxury of both a desktop and a laptop computer – and a Smartphone. Now, that’s living.
But the fact remains that it does take a certain amount of good ol’ U.S. script to keep churning out our stories and we depend on your generosity to keep the bills paid.
Gasoline is costly, as is the constant battle with recalcitrant public bodies who are reluctant to provide public records on request and have to be encouraged by our legal counsel – which is also costly.
LouisianaVoice strives to stay atop the latest stories, from Coronavirus vaccines to State Police abuses to the latest curious activities in the attorney general’s office.
So, please help us in this endeavor by either clicking on the yellow DONATE button to the right of this post to contribute by credit card or by sending a check to:
