THOSE MONTHLY BILL BLUES (A NEW COMPUTER!)

My name is Sue Ann and I am fundraising for my monthly bills (already stretched) because my computer wouldn't work anymore. I had to buy a new computer with accompanying tech service, software, and a mouse on credit. But that has added substantially to my monthly bills. Any money I can raise to pay that big computer bill will help.

Some of you know I publish Rise Up Times, Media for Justice and Peace. We live in Rise Up Times and up-to-date education and information around the many issues that affect our daily lives is essential. The climate crisis and the threat of nuclear war are very real and paramount among other urgent and related issues such as gun control, homelessness, COVID, hunger, racist violence, and more.

Buying a new computer was essential to continue sharing information with you on Rise Up Times and social media. For over ten years Rise Up Times has spoken, bringing you articles of substance about issues of substance.

Publishing began in earnest on RiseUpTimes.org in 2010, followed by Facebook and then other social media a year later in 2011. Rise Up Times covers issues of the day and shares ideas for the future from activists who know the issues they write about, providing insights and knowledge that provide a basis for informed actions, whether on the streets or signing petitions, writing letters to the editor, or otherwise engaging in the nonviolent actions it takes to build a movement.

Rise Up Times publishes thoughtful analyses of those issues that affect our lives daily and serve as a basis for action.

I appreciate your support of Rise Up TImes!

P.S. A gift of $25 will make it possible to continue to bring you active writings of stories, actions, events, and analyses.
