We hope that all Secrecy News readers will give generously to charitable causes that help relieve those who are in distress. After you have done that, we hope you may also contribute to Secrecy News and the work of the FAS Project on Government Secrecy.
As readers know, we do not charge anyone for subscriptions to Secrecy News or for access to the records we collect. We want to make our work available even to those who can’t or don’t want to pay for it.
But one way or another, we need to pay our bills like everyone else. And so– this appeal.
If your situation permits, please consider making a tax deductible contribution to the Federation of American Scientists to support Secrecy News. (Thanks to those who have already done so!)
Donations can be made online here (specify that your donation should be directed to “government secrecy”). If contributing via Paypal, send us a separate email to let us know you want your contribution allocated to the FAS Project on Government Secrecy. Checks payable to FAS may also be mailed to:
