COLA Depends on Public Support for Funding
And, just where is COLA getting its funding from? According to former president, Moses Sulph, the organization is still very much dependent on the altruism of private individuals, as well as the business community.

“There are a lot of persons out there who love this country just like we do. There are a lot of organizations who are capable of printing these things and because they love the work that COLA is doing, an organization that is neutral, they would support in printing these things and different things like that in contributing kind or money. So there is nothing illegitimate happening at COLA, we don’t have money. We depend on people who have a heart and who love the country and who want to hold politicians accountable.”

“But you are not a member of COLA and we didn’t pay for you to come here either. It was out of your kindness that you came here. But we thank you. Well Jules, again, you can join the membership of COLA and we can disclose all our sources to you. But until then we have to take it that we don’t know who you’re really working for us to disclose all that information.”
This is surely not the last time that we’ll be hearing from COLA and we will be sure to follow their movements in their sustained campaign.
