Some things you money does:
* $200 fills up @JDScholten's campaign R.V.
* $300 rents a venue for a town hall, and buys donuts
* $1000 pays a month's rent (!!!) for a field office
* $2500 pays a community outreach coordinator for a month
* $10,000 pays for a local TV ad

One battle right now is to get voters registered, and build volunteer networks so those voters get dragged to the polls on election day. Rural college towns like Ames or Orono, that traditionally have high enthusiasm but abysmal turnout. The House campaigns are doing this today.

The Senate campaigns are still getting started, in many cases not having yet settled on a candidate. They will be well-funded, but will not make rural turnout a goal. Supporting these House candidates is a way to gather a few thousand additional votes for those very tight races

How does supporting rural house districts help flip the senate?
-
These house races have the experienced field teams for turnout, and they're the ones actively trying to register voters right now. They also complement the Senate strategy, which is focused almost entirely on suburban and city voters. Basically, a way to add a few thousand votes.
