SUPPORT YOUR RIGHT TO KNOW AND A HEALTHY DEMOCRACY

Tomorrow is Colorado Gives Day, the annual statewide day of philanthropy. Thank you to everyone who has supported the Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition during our fall fundraising campaign and throughout the year.

If you haven’t donated yet, please consider supporting our tireless efforts to promote government transparency in Colorado and to make sure Coloradans know their rights under our state’s open-government laws.

Our work is essential to a better-informed Colorado and to maintaining a healthy democracy. But it's not possible without your financial help. CFOIC relies on individual gifts, membership dues and grants.

Your tax-deductible donation lets CFOIC provide free services to journalists and the public — including our comprehensive, indexed guide to Colorado’s sunshine laws, the original reporting on our blog, and our freedom-of-information hotline, which is backed by the state’s leading First Amendment and media lawyers.

CFOIC strengthens and supports local journalism. It empowers the public and educates everyone. The health of our democracy depends on the public’s ability to obtain accurate, truthful and reliable information about government at all levels.

Your gift will be matched by the Colorado Media Project, up to a total of $5,000, and boosted by a $1.4 million incentive fund. Two CFOIC board members also are matching gifts up to a total of $2,500 each.

Please spread the word by forwarding this email to friends, relatives and colleagues who care about open and accountable government in Colorado!

Thank you!
