With just a week to go in Australian Marriage Equality’s Pozible fundraising drive, leaders from across the political spectrum have joined to offer an exciting range of new rewards for donors.

Rewards include lunches with key Australian political figures like Deputy Labor Leader, Tanya Plibersek, Greens Leader, Christine Milne, key MPs including Martin Foley, Sarah Hanson-Young and Adam Bandt, and Liberal Sydney City Councillor, Christine Forster, who is Prime Minister, Tony Abbott’s sister.

Australian Marriage Equality national director, Rodney Croome, said,

“The fact that political leaders have united in support of our fund raising drive shows how marriage equality brings people together from across the political spectrum.”

“Achieving our $50,000 target over the next week is crucial if AME is to successfully campaign into 2015.”

“Political insiders tell us 2015 is the key year for marriage equality and we have to be ready to expand our successful grass roots electorate campaign and make sure our voice is heard in Canberra.”

“I have no doubt many supporters of marriage equality will relish an opportunity to meet some of our key political leaders up close, as well as supporting the marriage equality campaign.”

AME has already raised $30,000 in donations but needs another $20,000 if it is to receive any of the money at all.
