Fuel the Mission and the People Behind It
Without the donations of our fellow Americans, the mission to inspire American unity would stand still. Your contributions and advocacy fuel our creative work and support our team so that we can keep going and offer inspiration for American unity to help any American choose unity. Over the last seven and a half years, we’ve pressed forward with average annual donations of $13,965. We’ve never received major funding, but because the mission is a major passion, we stretch every dollar you give to connect with professionals in American politics, produce beautiful work, fund our partner organizations, and develop and strengthen leaders who can make our country more just and free for the next generation.
So far, 127 people have contributed, representing 20 states. What you give through the options below will keep us online as we create Volume Two and reach for the bigger goal of biannual publication. To get there, we estimate that we will need $200,000 per year for five consecutive years.
Our pledge to you
When you fuel the mission to inspire American unity by giving, our pledge to you is that we will not only be relentless about living our values and philosophy and our build endurance mindset, we will also constantly evaluate our craft to deliver the best possible artistic, cultural statement we can. And we will communicate with you constantly, because communication is what creates community.

Ways to give
Volume One
Five and a half years in the making, Volume One will take you deeper into the stories of those who have been displaced or marginalized so that we can find the path to wisdom, which makes unity possible. 20% of your donations for each copy fund our partner organizations, Border Perspective and Refuge Coffee Co.
Volume Two
Write the next season of the story that we started in Volume One with us by claiming your copy of Volume Two now! We are crowdfunding printing and shipping costs and moving forward with a build endurance mindset. We hope to have it completed by December 2024.
When you crowdfund Volume Two, you’ll have the option to include your name in its pages and all future illustrated journals as a founder of Liberatus in print!
Liberatus Advocates
Liberatus Advocates make monthly recurring donations to keep Liberatus online and operational year after year. Our current group of donors give anywhere from $5 to $50 a month. To put it simply, we would not be able to cover basic, minimal operating expenses without them. If you’re a fan of Volume One, sign up as a Liberatus Advocate, and we will include your name in each illustrated journal. You’ll also receive the invite to the Annual Liberatus Ultramarathon & Trailfest.*
*The annual donor event is a self-supported, run or walk your own 55k, 20k, 10mi, 10k, or 5k. Liberatus Advocates will receive details about the date and meetup location. You can also join us on Strava.

Liberatus Founders’ Circle
To create a stable core base of support, we are building a new community of donors who make five-year commitments and fund team members. Founders see the world differently, and conversation among founders can create friendship unlike anything else because of mutual respect for the pursuit of big goals to make the world around us a better place. Among founders, the judgement playing field is leveled and what matters is moving forward despite challenges. Joining the Founders’ Circle is an opportunity to move from being a fan or supporter to a founder or owner. To join, sign up here, or write to us to learn more.

Liberatus—A new anthem rises
Out of three hundred million calls
To revolution.
Unity—when a community prizes
Wisdom, Wholeness, abandons all
But restoration—
Reflects beauty. Politics despises
Peace, but truth starts our upward fall
Now—we are set free!
