So many of you, our readers and friends, have stepped up to support Greater Greater Washington in this year’s reader drive. We’ve raised $16,296 so far toward our $25,000 goal with one week left!

To get us over the finish line, some of our board members, editors, and other major donors have offered to match your contributions one for one for the next $5,000 of gifts, which will put us over our $25,000 mark. Can you give today?

Our reader drive will end at our birthday party on March 8 at Vendetta on H Street NE (which you can now get to by streetcar!) RSVP here, but before you do, please help put us over the top with a gift.

You’ve heard from all the members of our Board of Directors about why they support Greater Greater Washington. They, the members of our volunteer Editorial Board, and two other major donors have pledged support (in several cases over and above gifts they’ve already made) to match your donations up to $5,000, starting right now.

Can you give now, double your impact, and get us past the finish line well before our party? Thank you!
