Folks --

I'm emailing you today to say thank you. Thanks to grassroots supporters in Utah and across the country, we hit our end-of quarter fundraising goal last night and closed out September strong.

This past month, we mourned national tragedies and recommitted to fighting injustice in all its forms. Early voting began in key battleground states across the country. And I made clear the differences between Donald Trump and me at the first presidential debate.

So I wanted to reach out personally and thank you for your support. This campaign wouldn’t be the same without you.

Thanks to grassroots supporters, we were able to make historic advertising investments in battleground states across the country to reach voters and counter Donald Trump's lies.

We trained and organized thousands of volunteers, empowering people to talk with each other about why they’re in this fight and to grow this campaign like never before.

We’re implementing a first-of-its-kind Get Out the Vote effort right now, and that work will only continue to ramp up as ballots are cast in more and more states.

And personally, the support you showed last month has meant the world to Kamala and me.

We now have just one month left to win this battle for the soul of the nation. I'm so grateful for everything you've done to power this campaign so far, but the final stretch is going to challenge us like never before.

If you can, will you help us kickstart October by making your first donation to my campaign? Anything you're able to chip in today will make a real difference in this final stretch, and if you donate on this page you could be selected for my grassroots donor call time:

This truly is a grassroots campaign. Grassroots donations make up 95% of contributions to my campaign. I'm so proud of and so grateful for that.

But I know from my past campaigns that the final weeks aren’t just tough -- they’re also expensive. We still have voters to reach all across the country, and we can’t afford to leave anything on the table.

So even though I hate asking for your hard-earned dollars, I know that the only way we'll win in November is if folks across the country keep chipping in to power this campaign over these final weeks.

That's why, in addition to sending you this email, I'll also be calling a few grassroots donors soon to say thank you personally. I'd love to see you on that list -- will you make your first donation today?

Thanks again. I'm so proud to have you on my team.

Sincerely,

Joseph R. Biden Jr.
