Push on!
As I write these words, we are just over a week away from the January 31st deadline for the Xmas Fighting Fund appeal. The target? £6,000. The amount raised to date? Just over £4,700. So it’s looking like we will need to raise One Grand in One Week.
By the time you read this we will know the final figure. But whatever happens we need to keep the donations coming in. The Xmas drive has produced some great donations.
A comrade from Merseyside has pledged £1,500; other donations include £300 (Andy), £200 (Bob F.), £100 (Darrall), £250 (Rob W) £250 (Beverley) £100 (Keith), £100 (Kenny) and many more like that as well as a pile of smaller but equally welcome donations.
A lot of readers also paid the solidarity price for the journal, which meant a pound donation for each sale. We cannot name you all but we thank you all.
Let’s keep it up!
Donations can be made online by going to wellred.marxist.com.
You can also go into any branch of Abbey and pay over the counter to us via account K2018479SOC in the name of SASC. Donations can also be made by post (again make cheques payable to SASC) by sending them to us at PO Box 50525, Poplar, London, E14 6WG. So why not make that investment in socialism? Send us what you can without delay – be it £1, £20 or £200. It all counts.
