The pins will feature our Caladrius mascot and mission (No pandemic denial, minimizing, or gaslighting here!). Hats for new monthly donations over $20/month, or new one-time donations over $50. These will be classic dad hats featuring our purple logo." Below are images of the pin and the hat.

We're over halfway to our summer fundraiser goal!

Monthly donations β€” at any amount! β€” are incredibly helpful to us as a small newsroom.

Can you help us get 36 more monthly donations! New monthly donations over $20/month (or new one-time donations over $50) get a sick dad hat! bit.ly/49XO626
