Dear Reader,
December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising. We have a $350,000 goal that we simply cannot afford to miss. And in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we explain, as matter-of-fact as we can, how being a nonprofit means everything to us. Bottom line: Donations big and small make up 74 percent of our budget this year and are urgently needed this month, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal. Please pitch in if you can right now.
December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we hope that giving it to you as matter-of-fact as we can will work to raise the $350,000 we need to raise this month. Donations make up 74 percent of our budget this year, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal.
This year is the 100th anniversary of the Balboa Ferry, which has been plowing the waters of Newport Bay since 1919, saving people a trip out and around Newport Blvd. to Balboa Peninsula. Carfare is two bucks. People are a dollar each. Three ferries are in operation at all times on a five-minute schedule. This picture is of the Commodore, coming in to dock at Balboa Island. The other two are the Admiral and the Captain.
Award-winning photojournalism.
Stunning video. Fearless conversations.
