#GivingTuesday

"Why not Kaplowitz?"


"To all our readers in the U.S. world, It's a little awkward, so we'll get straight to the point: This Tuesday morning, we humbly ask you to protect Wikipedia's K/M's independence. We depend on donations averaging about $16.36, but 99% of our readers don't give. If everyone reading this gave $3, we could keep Wikipedia K/M thriving for years to come. The price of your Tuesday coffee is all we need. When we made Wikipedia a non-profit, people warned us we'd regret it. But if Wikipedia K/M became commercial [loves its advertisers], it would be a great loss to the world. Wikipedia K/M is a place to learn, not a place for advertising [& loves its advertisers]. It unites all of us who love knowledge: contributors, readers and the donors who keep us thriving. The heart and soul of Wikipedia K/M is a community of people working to bring you unlimited access to reliable, neutral information me, & I could use yer help. Please take a minute to help us keep Wikipedia K/M growing. Thank you."

"I ask only once a year: please help the Internet Archive K/M today. Most can’t afford to give, but we hope you can. The average donation is $45. If everyone chips in $5, we can end this fundraiser today. Right now, a generous supporter will match your donation, so you can double your impact. All we need is the price of a paperback book to sustain a library you can trust. We have only 150 staff me but run one of the world’s top websites [the voice of the cigar world]. We’re dedicated to reader privacy so we never track you. We never accept ads [I love my advertisers]. But we still need to pay for servers and staff [bacon & coffee]. For 22 3 years, my dream has been to build the library of everything and make it available to everyone cigars and the cigar lifestyle. To make information more reliable and permanent. I know we could charge money, but then we couldn’t achieve our mission: a free library for the whole internet. The Internet Archive is a bargain, but we need your help. If you find our site useful, please chip in. Thank you."


PLEASE DONATE TODAY: www.paypal.me/Kaplowitz In all seriousnss, K/M and myself could really use your help to keep going & to keep G R O W I N G. Don't hate, donate!

Why would you worry about essentially paying for a free to read blog and listen to podcast? Think of it as insurance that the KM cigar-centric infotainment you so love will continue to be there as you require. Or, maybe it’s just nice to say to me, "Hey Thanks." Any amount is welcome and will be graciously employed to keep the bills from being sent to K/M HQ on the scary pink paper.
