✅ Before the weekend, check something nice off your list

Together, we can put children first in 2026. Double your impact.

Hey there, with only a few days left before the new year, we’re at a critical fundraising moment. Every dollar we raise now will directly impact how much we can help children in crisis in 2026.

A group of generous donors has contributed to a matching gift fund to inspire compassionate people like you to give during this important season. This means your gift can have TWICE* the impact, helping us reach more children facing hunger, disease and displacement.

Every donation, large or small, matters for children struggling to survive unimaginable crises.

$30 (becomes $60) can provide a week's worth of clean water for 6 12 families. Give now>>
$75 (becomes $150) can provide jackets for 5 10 children to stay warm during the cold winter. Give now>>
$150 (becomes $300) can wrap warm, cozy blankets around 30 60 children affected by conflict. Give now>>

From Alabama to Gaza, New Mexico to Myanmar, our teams work around the clock to give children a better future. But we couldn’t do it without the generosity of people like you.

Thank you for believing in a world where children come first. Always and everywhere.

Warmly,

Save the Children

*A generous group of donors has donated to a matching gift fund to inspire more donors like you to support our work, and every $1 you donate will unlock $1 from this pool for the first $50,000 in donations or until midnight on Dec 25, 2025.

Monthly gifts will be matched for the first monthly installment only. If we meet our match goal prior to receiving your one-time or monthly donation, your donation will not be matched but will still go to support our programs.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

With the holidays here, I wanted to take a moment to thank you.

This year has been tough. We've seen the Republican majority roll back our rights, threaten our progress and try to run our country into the ground for personal gain.

But you know what kept me going? Logging into my inbox and seeing your name. Opening ActBlue and seeing how many supporters gave a few dollars. Watching you show up again and again, even when the news made us want to hide under the covers.

Supporters like you are the reason we can take on 2026 with confidence. You give me hope that we haven't just survived these tough years – we've gotten stronger, more determined and more ready to fight than ever before.

But we both know hope isn't enough. Winning takes resources – and right now, we still need to raise $14,602 before December 31st to hit our goal and give our candidates what they need to compete and win.

That's why I'm reaching out today: Will you chip in $10 or $25 to help us elect a blue wave and take back the Senate once and for all? Our final public fundraising deadline of the year is next week:

Happy Holidays!

A picture of Katie Porter's family's Christmas card. It has a picture of Katie and her three children with the caption 'MERRY CHRISTMAS; Betsy, Luke, Katie & Paul; 2025'.

I wanted to share an update from my family to yours:

Luke is a sophomore at college in Iowa, surprisingly never complaining about the snow or humidity. This summer he had an internship doing environmental policy in Colorado.

Paul is a junior in high school, where video production remains his passion. Now armed with his drivers license, he borrows the minivan to haul equipment to video shoots. He's very tall and always wears a smile.

Surviving 8th grade is no small feat, but Betsy is crushing it. She's learning Spanish, participating in student government, surviving Enhanced Math, and still playing water polo around California. More miles for the minivan.

Our family has two new pets: Dino, a Burmese kitten, and Poppy, a Basset Hound puppy. They are best friends.

I hope you are able to spend time with your family and friends this week and that you are able to find moments of joy.

Yours truly,

Katie

Katie is running to be California's next governor because California and our country need a leader who will stand up to Trump to lower costs, protect our rights, and combat climate change.

I don’t love this

Jeanne,

We're just days away from our critical FEC deadline. If you're anything like me, you've probably gotten a lot of messages like this one asking for your support. And most will say the same thing: this deadline matters.

But here's why it really, really matters for this unique Senate race in Georgia, where I am the only Democratic incumbent Senator seeking reelection in a state Trump won:

1. WE HAVE TO SHOW STRENGTH. There are three Republican candidates running against me, and national Republicans have already spent millions of dollars on TV and digital ads attacking me. A strong showing in December proves to my opponents (and their Super PAC allies) — that our movement in Georgia is thriving and unstoppable.

2. THERE'S NO TIME TO LOSE. To win decisively, my team is already building a huge statewide campaign. That means more rallies. More organizers. More outreach — and early outreach — to voters in every corner of the state. That all takes resources right now. We're building and we've got to keep building bigger and faster every day.

So please, if you can, use this link to contribute anything you can to Catherie Cortez Masto and my reelection campaign in Georgia before our FEC deadline. I'd be grateful to have your support.

DONATE

I don't love asking for money. I don't think anyone does.

But the reality is I have to. I can't win without you.

Citizens United opened the dam for limitless dark money to flood into elections.

That's a big part of why Congress is broken and corrupted. It's why we have really expensive elections.

And also it's why campaigns like mine have to build serious grassroots fundraising operations from Day One.

I need your help, Jeanne!

I am literally MAGA's #1 target.

They will spare no expense and try every dirty trick.

Yes, this election will be tough.

But I know how to win tough fights. I've done it before.

Let's do it again.

Please, consider making a contribution to Catherine Cortez Masto's and my reelection before our critical FEC deadline. Every donation counts. Each one sends a powerful message to MAGA that we're ready to fight.

Happy holidays, friend!

I hope you're getting to spend time with those nearest and dearest to you, enjoying your favorite festive treats, and reflecting on 2025 as the year comes to an end. I know this year hasn't been without hardship, but I did want to personally thank you for being a bright spot.

The grassroots movement we're building is powerful because of folks like you, who believe that a better future is possible and are willing to fight for it. Your support means the world to me.

Connie, Franklin, Walter, and I wish you and your family all the best. Stay warm!
