An update about what's happenning and an Appeal.
Happy Holidays!
I hope everyone had a good and safe Christmas. I know its been awhile since I last posted on DailyKos but I thought I'd stop in and update you all on what's new. I am now hosting my own radio webcast (Asher Heimermann Live) online with another friend. We talk about news, politics, and current events.
My website is doing well and it looks really nice, in my opinion, thanks to everyone's ideas, feedback, and support. However, this leads me to another topic. I need help once again. Below is a appeal that I have wrote. Please read it and think about it. Feel free to share it with others:
An Appeal From Asher Heimermann
Dear Friend,
Today I am going to ask you to support my efforts with a donation. This might sound unusual to hear a 15 year old as for money online. See, I've been involved in politics for the past five years and in the past three years, I've been online sharing my views on news and politics.
There are just days away from 2009 and I need to raise $100 to continue my political efforts and to continue to stay online. Your donation will help pay to AsherHeimermann.com going strong. With your donation, I can continue to blog and host my weekly radio webcast about news, politics, and current events. I will continue to support the Democratic Party.
Today, I am asking that you make a donation of $10. Thats all. I am not asking you to donate $20 or $50. If you can't donate $10, thats fine. Just donate an amount that you can. If you want to donate more, thats great. Every cent and every dollar will count.
Your donation helps me in several ways. Most importantly, you will help me cover the increasing cost of managing this website. Think about it, AsherHeimermann.com gets visitors from all over the world. Funds also help me improve the look of this website -- making it easier to search, easier to read, and be a part of.
I am different from average American teenagers. I'm a teen that cares about the United States of America and the world. I care about what happens in Washington, DC. I want to know what is happening with tax money and what decisions will be good for the America people.
I invite you to join me: Your donation will help keep me continue to stay online. Without your support and your donation, I will not be able to do everything that I have been able to do that past three years on the internet. Please, make a donation of any size today.
Thank you,
Asher Heimermann, 15 Years Old
Sheboygan South High School Freshman
Young Democrats of America & Democratic National Committee
Please go to http://www.asherheimermann.com/... to make a donation. You will be able to make a donation anywhere on my website by clicking on the Donate botton that can be found generally on the botton of the website or on the right side of the Asher Heimermann Live website.
I would like close with this quote. I read it a lot and I think about it often. Thank you everyone, again. I hope you will think about my message and help me out in some way, if you can. Happy New Year.
"Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. it's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere."
- President-Elect Barack Obama
