Greetings friends and Hillary supporters! This is Scott Hopkins (aka "Scan"), the founder, editor and main writer at Hillary HQ.
As many of you know, my site (along with the accompanying Facebook and Twitter pages) went full-time in late April with the help of your grassroots donations at GoFundMe.
And since taking the plunge, there's been nothing but good news:
We had just over 10,000 Facebook followers at the end of April...and today we're over 120,000! Just amazing, staggering growth. We're definitely having a positive impact on this election...thanks to you! The site's profile and reputation rose to the point that we were granted full press credentials to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia! What an amazing honor and privilege it was to attend that historic event. Everyday site traffic has been stronger and steadier than ever, and will likely be even higher during the next two months. Over $6,500 in donations have been received over the past four months...42% of the total goal! Thanks to all of our grassroots supporters for making this success possible.We're now hitting the post-Labor Day homestretch of this crazy election and Hillary HQ will be going into overdrive until November 8th! It's going to be an intense ride to the finish line. But in order to keep operating full-time without taking on financial burden, the site needs to reach full funding for the year. Therefore, we'll be doing a grassroots fundraiser all weekend to hopefully reach our total goal.
If you enjoy and appreciate what Hillary HQ has done every day for the last 20 months to help elect Hillary Clinton as the next President of the Unites States, I would be honored to have your grassroots support at this time.
And get this: If just 2% of our Facebook followers gave a one-time donation of only $5, we'll more than reach full funding for the year. Wow! How easy is that? Obviously the goal can be reached much faster with donations that are a little more generous, but this gives you an idea of how easily it can be done.
I've noticed that some people have preferred to donate via PayPal or personal check, which works just as well. So to help make this fundraiser a success, I've decided to gradually reduce the original GoFundMe target of $16k to account for outside donations.
If you prefer to donate via PayPal, use this link: Hillary HQ PayPal.
DONATE TODAY!If you would like to send a personal check or donate using an alternate method, send me a message using the comment form on the right side of the HillaryHQ.com homepage or via kosmail. Remember: the total GoFundMe goal will be reduced by whatever amount you donate using an alternate method...so everyone's donation counts equally and the goal will be reached one way or another!
With a little help from our friends, Hillary HQ will remain the best, most comprehensive and most essential hub for Clinton news, opinion and activism anywhere on the Internet. Also, we can keep the site completely 100% AD-FREE! (how refreshing is that?)

I'm looking forward to hitting the ground running on Tuesday to begin the intense homestretch of the 2016 election! Thank you all so much for your continued readership and support.
