We just crossed $100,000 to help people leave MAGA

In less than a year, something remarkable has happened.

Everyday people like you have built Leaving MAGA into a grassroots force.

No big checks. No billionaire underwriters. Just thousands of small acts of courage.

$101,891.33 raised. 5,460 contributions. Average gift: $18.66

Real people chipping in $10, $18, $25 at a time. This is the opposite of MAGA’s massive fundraising machine.

This is a community saying: we believe people can change, and we’re willing to invest in that possibility.

CHIP IN $18 — OUR AVERAGE GIFT

Here’s what that $101,891+ built:

• Weekly Support Groups where people process the grief that surrounds having MAGA-involved family — because nobody should go through this alone.
• National media appearances on MSNBC and other outlets show people across the country they’re not the only ones with doubts.
• Bold organizing — we drove digital billboards right in front of Mar-a-Lago. I spoke in Hershey, Pennsylvania. We’re meeting people where they are with content and resources that give them a path out.

Recently, someone wrote to me: “I have much admiration for your honesty, transparency, and sincere manner of putting forth your own journey. Your work in providing a community-based platform in which to safely ‘land’ for those feeling the call to leave this ideology is unique and important work.”

That’s what we’re building. A safe landing place. A community that says: your anxieties were exploited, your good faith was weaponized, but you can walk away. And we’ll be here when you do.

We’re just getting started.

My book is set to publish in January — expanding my free ebook into a fuller story of leaving and rebuilding. We’re adding more support groups and materials. More outreach. More people leaving MAGA in 2026.

But to keep growing, we need more people to join our donor community.

Right now, when you pitch in $18, $25, $50, $100, $250, or any amount you can, you’re helping to turn the first $100,000 into the first $250,000 and beyond — funding our weekly support groups, community organizing, and media to reach more people so we can end MAGA’s grip on Americans.

Help us keep going.

YES! I’LL CHIP IN $18!

Every contribution says: We’re building something better than what we’re leaving behind.

Thanks for being with us in this odyssey,

Rich
