Back in December, we announced the Lawfare Official Advertising for Charity program, the LOAC Fund as we jokingly named it. The idea was to create a revenue stream through advertising on the blog for two particularly worth causes: the CIA Officers Memorial Foundation and Fisher House. Unfortunately, the program was not a success. The ads generated virtually no revenue, not nearly enough to justify the unsightly imposition on the site.

Back in December, we announced the Lawfare Official Advertising for Charity program, the LOAC Fund as we jokingly named it. The idea was to create a revenue stream through advertising on the blog for two particularly worth causes: the CIA Officers Memorial Foundation and Fisher House. Unfortunately, the program was not a success. The ads generated virtually no revenue, not nearly enough to justify the unsightly imposition on the site. So we have decided to cancel the program--and the ads are thus gone. We continue to urge readers to support these charities and will look for other ways to parlay reader interest in the blog into support for charitable work of thematic relevance to the issues we discuss here.
