Give $60.
The city makes it $420.

Berkeley matches contributions from city residents 6 to 1. This campaign takes public financing, so $60 is the most anyone can give — and it goes further here than a big check goes anywhere else.

01How much

Minimum $10. Maximum $60 — that's a legal cap for publicly financed campaigns, not a suggestion.

Not tax-deductible. Contributions to a political campaign aren’t deductible for federal or California income tax purposes. This isn’t a charitable gift — it’s a political one.

02Who you are

Berkeley requires every one of these on a contribution receipt. Your home address is how the city confirms residency for the match — it isn't published by us.

03Occupation & employer

Berkeley itemizes contributions at $50 and up — lower than the state's $100 — so these are required at that level.

04Sign it

Berkeley Municipal Code § 2.12.500.A.3.a requires a hand-drawn signature — a typed name or a checkbox doesn't count, and an unsigned contribution can't be matched. Use your finger on a phone, or your mouse.

I understand that the purpose of this qualified contribution is to help John (Steve) Kromer qualify for Berkeley Fair Elections campaign funding, and that this contribution is made without coercion or reimbursement.

05Payment

Card details go straight to Stripe — they never touch our server.

Thank you.

Your signed receipt is on its way to your inbox. Keep it — it's the document the city needs if any question ever comes up.
