Spring Fund Drive 2018

Spring Fund Drive Mets Goal. In the late night hours of May 13, you generous readers pushed us over the $100,000 goal we had for your 2018 Spring Fund Drive. We have only two words for you: Thank you! Add two more: Thank you very much!

Spring Fund Drive: If you find yourselves nodding in agreement with something you've read in NCR, if you depend on NCR to stay with the Catholic Church, please join us by becoming a member of NCR or, if you prefer, with a one-time gift.

Spring Fund Drive: One of NCR's most significant contributions to the Catholic media is its continued commitment to spotlighting the voices of those on the margins of our church and society. Please support us today so that we can continue to speak prophetically and independently about the issues in our church that matter most to you. 

Spring Fund Drive: NCR is dependent on its readership for support to sustain its publication. Only through your support will NCR be able to continue to provide the journalism and insights that have made it such an indispensable resource.

Spring Fund Drive: National Catholic Reporter has been known for in-depth, investigative reporting throughout its nearly 54-year history. And it's a heritage I'm proud to be a part of, as I cover church organizations, the hierarchy, the #MeToo movement and the serious social justice issues facing our country today. Please consider supporting NCR's work.

Spring Fund Drive: For more than 50 years, NCR has been an independent source of news, political commentary, book reviews and spiritual insight for Catholics, indeed, for all people of faith. We're more than halfway to our $100,000 goal. Help bring this drive a successful close.

Spring Fund Drive: It would be unimaginable that a revivalist spirit could be achieved without a consensus around Vatican II, which would require powerful participation by laity. Stand by NCR to stay tuned. If you are reading this, you are most likely someone who cares deeply about this struggle and for NCR's vigilance in covering it. Please, share your support today.

Spring Fund Drive: The Spring Fund Drive only comes once a year, but our Vatican coverage happens year-round. We really do rely on you, our community, to meet these expenses.

Spring Fund Drive: Just as the internet makes it possible to read NCR virtually anytime, virtually anywhere, it enables you to support us financially whether you call your money pounds, shillings, dollars or pesos.

Spring Fund Drive: These are exciting times to be an NCR Catholic. We find much hope with Pope Francis in the Vatican. The messages he preaches of inclusivity and mercy spurs us on to act with the poor and to seek out the marginalized. 

Spring Fund Drive: Like most jobs related to the Catholic Church, we journalists do not come to our vocation to get rich. Your gifts are used to make sure Joshua J. McElwee is on the papal plane or to send Heidi Schlumpf and me to the meeting of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Spring Fund Drive: NCRonline.org would dry up and wither away if we stopped investing in it. Please don't let that happen. Support the work National Catholic Reporter has been doing for almost 54 years.
