A Final and Prayerful Appeal

Dear NR Friend,

Tomorrow, Monday, we celebrate Memorial Day. We end our Spring 2018 Webathon — an effort to raise over $200,000 to fund some key projects at NR's website — today. It's important that we steer clear of the hallowed day that tomorrow must be.

So this will be the final ask — as we remain short of our goal — and I do indeed ask: If you've yet to do so, please make your donation to this critical effort. Do so here. As for why you should, read Rich Lowry's heartfelt plea. Any contribution would be of great help (go ahead — send that big one you always wanted to make!).

Even though our request for your selfless support has to do with NRO, I'd like to ask those of you who also get NR magazine — and who have had a particular fondness for its excellent Books, Arts & Manners section — to consider that donation in part to honor our late colleague, Mike Potemra, who for some 17 years used great skill and wisdom and charity — and even love — to make BA&M an always readable, enjoyable, high-calibre, and influential testament to the heritage that Bill Buckley established when he founded NR in 1955.

A dear colleague (if there was ever an understatement, that's it!), Mike's sudden death last week has knocked us off the beam. Regardless of any donating, if you are the sort who remembers the souls of the recently departed, do say a prayer for Mike and his peaceful repose.

And do also pray for those who made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure our freedoms, including the freedom to publish exceptional and distinctly conservative commentary and analysis.

God's blessings on you and yours and on this great Nation,

Jack Fowler
