Anonymous Donors Will Match Your Contribution to PEERS
PEERS Urgently Needs Your Help to Dig Us Out of a Hole
Dear WantToKnow.info friends,
Exciting news! Seeing that PEERS is so deep in the red this year, for the first time three wonderful anonymous donors have stepped up with a challenge. For every dollar that you contribute, they will match your contribution, effectively doubling whatever you donate up to a total of $4,000. Their offer ends on Dec. 31st. Will you help us to meet this worthy challenge?
PEERS and WantToKnow.info urgently need your help to pull us out of a deficit of nearly $15,000 for the year. As Google has used the pretext of "fake news" to move WantToKnow.info and other alternative news websites much lower in their rankings, the number of visits we're getting is down over 50% from a year ago and donations from these visitors is down. And in July the amazon affiliate program cancelled our account, so we really need you to step up and show you care.
"No single website has had a bigger impact on my personal transformation than the site WantToKnow.info, because while it has a plethora of information which once frightened and angered me, it also showed me a way to alleviate my fear through personal service to others. Thank you for your inspiration to go beyond my fear and accept what is, especially when I don't like it." ~~ Laila S.
Despite the lower visit numbers, WantToKnow.info still receives close to 2,000 visits a day. Caring people around the world every day continue to have their eyes opened to deeper realities and to be inspired to make a difference by our work. As a result, many are now taking action to play their part in bringing about major positive change on our planet. Key influential people have even written books and created websites based on the powerful information available at WantToKnow.info.
Yet for all of our accomplishments over the 16 years since WantToKnow.info first started, we still operate on a shoestring budget of about $80,000/year with a very small staff. I am the only one working full time on all of this. We pay three contractors small amounts for their valuable contributions, and a few volunteers have made significant contributions, yet that's it.
Of the over 14,000 subscribers to our email list, less than 5% have given donations this year. Thank you so much to each and every one of you who did contribute, and special thanks to the nearly 152 supporters who are giving valuable monthly contributions. Yet we really need more of you to support us in the great work, especially as anything you give will now be doubled.
"You inspired me today. I took the liberty of using several of your articles as the basis for a project for the College Statistics Class I teach ... also a sneaky way of introducing WantToKnow.info to my unsuspecting and unaware students. This should be a real wake up call! THANK YOU!!!!!!!" ~~ Kathleen G."

"Thank you guys for your website. I've been researching this stuff for months and have been disappointed by most websites on the subject. They either go too far, pull up information that makes them look crazy, or quite simply don't realize what the solution is. Fighting negativity with negativity is pointless. Your site is a beautiful work of organization, the best videos, the real solutions. You are the only site I've donated to." ~~ Quinten C.
May this coming new year of 2020 bring lots of rich transformation and ever more love and meaningful connection into our lives and our world. And thank you for the part you are playing in all of this. Together, I have no doubt that we are making a big difference.
With deep gratitude and best wishes for the holidays and for a rich and fulfilling new year ahead,
Fred Burks for PEERS and WantToKnow.info
"I really appreciate the informative emails that I receive, both highlighting important news that is left out of mainstream media and positive steps folks are taking to addressing the many ills our community faces. I'm impressed by your ability to address the negative without becoming jaded or cynical. I'm really thankful that you are able to juggle all this and still remain positive. It really touches on the model that can set things in positive directions - that we can't respond to negative patterns with more negative patterns, but rather with positive energy and hope and confidence in the love available within our world. Blessings on your ongoing work." ~~ Ross R.
