Title: Your support is needed and appreciated
Post by: Susan on November 26, 2014, 07:51:10 PM
Just a reminder before everyone goes out and spends a bundle on Black Friday deals,  we have had $462 in donations this month; and I thank each and every person behind them for their support and for their stepping up without being asked!

However, we are still $1500 below the monthly goal which means that the costs for site are covered. There hasn't been even one month in the last year where we fully covered the expenses, and I chip in the difference.

Just under 250,000 users visit the site each month.  710 members logged into the forum today. 

If just the members who were online today donated $2 each it would take care the vast majority of our shortfall. If everyone who visited the site donated just 1$ a month we could take care of the expenses for several years and add some much needed updates and upgrades. I am sure there are some members who could afford to do even more.

Remember anything at all is appreciated. 

Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving

You better update your numbers. Tomorrow I'll give thanks to you, for keeping this place going.  :) Happy Thanksgiving, Susan!

Hugs, Devlyn

Susan,

Could you give us a breakdown of monthly $2000 expenses?

I think monthly published accounts showing Susans.org expenditure would be a great way to motivate members to contribute.
