Vol. 78/No. 35      October 6, 2014

BY TED LEONARD
The Socialist Workers Party launched its annual fall Party-Building Fund Sept. 13 with a goal of raising $100,000 by Nov. 11. Readers of the Militant are invited to contribute.

Contributions will help the party respond to growing labor resistance and broader social struggles — two mutually reinforcing responses to the worldwide crisis of capitalism, its impact on the lives of the working class and its allies, and the moral and ethical questions it poses. These developments open up new opportunities to converge in action with workers, youth and others who can be won to the party’s revolutionary working-class course.

The Militant will feature a weekly column on the progress of the fund. The SWP’s finances depend on contributions from working people and the party’s annual fund drive is a central part of its budget.

A chart tracking quotas and collections from each area will be printed next week. Contributions can be sent to the SWP branch nearest you or to the SWP National Office at 306 W. 37th St., 13th floor, New York, NY 10018.

Ted Leonard is director of the 2014 SWP Party-Building Fund.
