| | | Friend – my roots are planted deeply in Georgia soil. I grew up in public housing on the west side of Savannah – and I attended Morehouse College, a historically Black university in Atlanta. I went on what I called a "full faith" scholarship, meaning I didn't know how I would pay for my first full semester. | But through hard work and the support of my community, I was the first in my family to graduate from college – and then became the senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church, the spiritual home of Martin Luther King Jr. I know firsthand how attending an HBCU prepared me for a life of service – and I'm fighting tooth and nail in the Senate to make sure every kid has the opportunity to achieve their American dream. | But this is going to be an uphill battle: Experts at NPR confirm that I'm the most vulnerable Senate Democrat up for reelection, and the polls show me neck and neck with my GOP opponent. I urgently need your grassroots support to pull ahead and win: Please, will you pitch in $5 or more now to keep Georgia blue and defend our Senate majority – so I can keep giving all folks a voice in our government? | Thank you, friend. With your help, I know we can win. | – Rev. Raphael Warnock | | | | | | |
