CAPR Supporters,
I am personally asking you to formally become a member of CAPR
<http://capr.us/pp_donate.php> , if you are not already a member.
Citizens' Alliance for Property Rights (CAPR) is the membership and
administrative organization of the trio of corporations commonly known
jointly as CAPR. In the past we have asked for donations to CAPR Political
Action Committee or CAPR Legal Fund, but not CAPR. That is no longer true.
We have determined that there is an opportunity for significant expansion of
our membership available at this time and that we should pursue such
expansion. As CAPR President Steve Hammond puts it, "The planets somehow
seem to have aligned. Many folks are suddenly interested in restoring
property rights."
Individuals and leaders of other organizations with strong property rights
ties have urged CAPR to take the lead in the property rights fight. They
have pointed out that a larger CAPR is needed to make it easier for larger
money donors to give their support (and money) to CAPR. That larger money is
needed for us to be more effective in this fight and the more members we
have, the more the politicians pay attention.
The first step necessary to take that lead is to expand geographically via
chapters and numerically via members. We currently have seven active
chapters and seven more areas showing strong interest. In order to generate
and handle this expansion, we need to have at least one person devoting full
time to this project, and we need to fund that person through CAPR.
I know times are tough but that is often when opportunities such as this one
for CAPR are available. We have always kept membership prices low: $25 for
individuals, $35 for families, and $50 for companies. Signing up is easy:
print a form at http://capr.us/member.php and mail it to us or sign up
online at http://capr.us/pp_donate.php.
Your immediate membership will allow us to fund a full time person devoted
to expansion. Expansion will allow us to seek funds from a higher level of
donors (both individuals and organizations) than we have in the past. Money
is the mother's milk of the political and legal fights we need to pursue in
order to restore your property rights that are the basis of your liberty.
Please join CAPR now <http://capr.us/pp_donate.php> instead of putting it
off until tomorrow. Help us get to
20 chapters and 3,000 members by the end of the year.
That would clearly send the message that we are the
"Three Thousand Friends of Washington!"
Laurel and I appreciate greatly your past, patient support. It is time to
grow to the next step! We do not take lightly the act of sending this
request via the capr_announce list. Rather, it is an indicator of the
importance we put on this effort that we do so.
Sincerely,
Rodney McFarland
