Radically transparent

We're going to be radically transparent with you.

If you take a look at the chart below, you can see our fundraising numbers over the past few days. The amount we're raising each day is slipping.

It's never a good time to fall short – but especially not now, with our end-of-month deadline at midnight tonight. So please, will you chip in $5 or more to help us get back on track?

Reaching our $175,000 February goal isn't a nice-to-have; it's a need. Without those funds, we simply won't be able to stay competitive, defeat Sherrod's GOP opponent, and flip the seat we need to retake Senate control in November.

So that's why we're turning to folks like you. If you've been waiting for the perfect moment to make your first contribution to Sherrod Brown's Senate campaign, it's NOW.

Please chip in $5 to help us hit our $175,000 end-of-month goal and win in Ohio. Unless we see a surge in donations in the next couple of hours, we could be in real trouble.

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you,

Team Sherrod

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Personal message from Sherrod: I didn't plan on running for office again.

But when I saw how these guys in Washington are only looking out for their billionaire friends and special interests, I knew I had to get back in the fight.

This grassroots movement is about fighting back against a rigged system that benefits the wealthy and well-connected, while working people pay the price.

And we've got momentum: Experts increased our odds of winning and officially named Ohio as a key Senate race to watch, and two new polls show we have a slight lead over our opponent.

But I need your help: Corporate special interests have already spent millions attacking me with misleading ads. The only way we can fight back and win in Ohio is with grassroots contributions from supporters like you.

If you're with me, please chip in any amount today. If you'd like to become one of my TOP supporters and receive exclusive updates from our campaign team, text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you for standing with me.

There is a very real possibility that two Republicans could advance to the general election in California's governor election.

We CANNOT let that happen.

Katie Porter is the Democrat that can stop that from happening. Help us win by chipping in towards our $50,000 end-of-month goal today >>

The latest poll shows Katie in second place sandwiched between two Republicans. With only one point separating them, Katie could slip to third on election day.

In California, the top two vote getters regardless of party advance to the general election. If the primary were today that could be two MAGA Republicans advancing.

As the Democratic frontrunner, Katie is the only candidate who can stop a GOP lockout. But the clock is ticking, and we need to reach voters right now.

Rush $5 to our campaign so we can run ads and reach voters in every pocket of California. Right now—before our end-of-month fundraising deadline—is when your support matters the most.

Thank you,

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.

Sudan and Gaza are both at critical turning points

Friend, as Save the Children staff respond to emergencies around the world, we wanted to bring you the latest updates from our teams in Gaza and Sudan, where conditions continue to deteriorate rapidly.

Save the Children medical staff screen and treat children for malnutrition in Sudan.

More than 1,000 days into brutal conflict, Sudan continues to spiral further into a horrific crisis. Earlier this month, a United Nations-backed report confirmed what our teams have been warning for months — famine is now spreading in two more regions in North Darfur.

By the time famine is confirmed, families — especially children — have already endured the worst. Food is gone. Starvation takes hold. Growth becomes stunted. Immune systems weaken. Death follows.

Mohamad Abdiladif, Country Director for Save the Children in Sudan, reports:

"In many parts of Sudan, children’s lives are hanging by a thread, and some are already dying from hunger-related causes. Families who have escaped bullets and bombs and those who are in difficult-to-access areas are now facing extreme and life-threatening shortages of food. Every day, we hear devastating stories of parents selling the last of what they own simply to keep their children alive from one day to the next. Without immediate action, more lives will be lost.”

Save the Children is continuing to deliver urgently needed aid across Sudan. To respond to the urgent nutrition crisis, we are operating mobile clinics in displacement camps, bringing care to families who can’t reach hospitals. We are distributing nutrition supplements to malnourished children, helping them survive when food is severely limited. Our teams also provide medical supplies, including medicine for children under 5, and emergency trauma kits to local health facilities across the country, to meet needs beyond malnutrition in a country heavily impacted by conflict.

Learn more about our response by watching this video from Save the Children’s recent visit to Sudan.

Shurouq packs winter kits for children in Gaza.

After years of violence, little food, unsafe water and flimsy tents unfit for the elements, families in Gaza looked with cautious anticipation at the partial reopening of the Rafah border crossing earlier this month.

Shurouq, our multimedia manager in Gaza, shared what the moment meant for families:

“All eyes are now on the Rafah border as the futures of hundreds and thousands of children depend on it. Since the crossing was closed nearly two years ago, people have been waiting for a two-way, unconditional opening. Thousands in Gaza have been waiting to evacuate for vital medical treatment, students to take up their scholarships abroad after years of disrupted education caused by destroyed classrooms and lost learning opportunities and families longing for reunification with some waiting to return to their loved ones in Gaza.”

Watch Shurouq’s video update on the conditions in Gaza and how Save the Children is making a difference.

The reopening of the border crossing marked a small step, but children need much more. Weeks later, movement remains limited due to the Israeli authorities’ slow and restricted approvals. According to the World Health Organization, only 21 children of 4,000 that need medical evacuations have left Gaza. It would take over 8 years for the children to leave at the current rate.

Save the Children is continuing to call for unimpeded humanitarian access to families impacted by conflict and displacement. We are prepared to ramp up our response through local staff and partners as soon as access allows. Every hour matters for children who are holding on, waiting for help to reach them.

We are supporting families in Sudan and Gaza and are determined to reach even more — so we are demanding full, sustained humanitarian access to provide the care and protection children deserve.

A message for you

Hi, it's Sherrod.

This message isn't going to everyone. I'm sending it to you specifically – because you stood out.

You're one of my top grassroots supporters. You've been getting these emails for a while, reading about our race, and I appreciate how engaged you've been with our campaign.

That's why I'm reaching out to you specifically to personally ask you to make your first donation today. We're falling short of our critical $175,000 end-of-month goal, and I need you to step up.

I don't have to tell you how important this year is. How important Ohio is. How much is on the line.

It feels like everyone has their eyes on Ohio and they should: This is our chance to flip this seat and give working families the voice they deserve in Washington.

This is a big moment. I need you with me.

Please, will you chip in $5 and help us reach our critical $175,000 goal before the end-of-month deadline, win in Ohio, and give working folks a voice in Washington?

CONTRIBUTE

Thank you.

Sherrod
