Dear Friend:
We need your help at this very moment to keep this website freely accessible to the public. We know that you and hundreds of thousands of other people are using our website to monitor developments in Iraq and around the globe. But the bottom line is that contributions from the public and charitable foundations have not generated enough funds to support our work. As a user of this website, if you appreciate the content that we provide and would like to see this public resource continue, I am asking that you do all you can to help -- today.
Here is what you can do:
Please make the largest donation you can afford to GlobalSecurity.org. Please send a check today to GlobalSecurity.org at 300 N. Washington St., Suite B-100, Alexandria, VA 22314, or
you can make a donation right now by credit card using PayPal. Contributions are tax-deductible. Please be as generous as you can be.
If you are someone who can make a significant contribution or can raise substantial funds from others, I would like to talk with you directly. Please email or call me at 703-548-2700.
And if you work for a news organization, please send me an email(
[email protected]]) and tell me how your coverage has been assisted by this website. If you are a policymaker, tell me how our website has helped you. And if you are an analyst, an educator, a student, or a concerned citizen, we need to hear from you too! Send us an email and tell us who you are, how you have used this website and why it is important to you. We plan to assemble these testimonials as we seek foundation funds to support our work.
With the war underway, the demands on us are greater than ever. Our website is now getting more than a million hits a day, and our hosting costs have increased dramatically. Your help is urgently needed. I hope we can count on you at this pivotal time.
Sincerely,
John Pike
