Title: PLEASE HELP
Post by: Cindy on August 25, 2015, 04:27:34 AM
People we are less than half this month of what we need to keep the site going.

I know how much this site means to you, and no we are not skimming you.

Susan works full time on the site, we have software and hardware to maintain and replace.

We keep the place going for YOU.

Please help so we can help you. $5 each. The price of a cup of coffee from everyone. Is that too much to ask?

PLEASE!!

Online at the time I'm posting this is 300 people - if everyone donated $5 (as Cindy said, the price of a coffee) that would come very close to meeting the goal for this month - and I know many more than 300 people are active in a day.


Hugs

Another way to approach this - has Susan's helped you? Whether it be helping you through a personal crisis or bad spot, allayed a fear or concern... or given you some useful feedback, or provided an insight or tip about clothes, make-up, packers, binders, dealing with family, friends or work... has Susan's helped you? How would you be if the site wasn't here? The site gives a lot and asks for very little in return, it doesn't run advertising, doesn't have a rich benefactor and Susan puts her time and money into giving you one of the best trans support resources in the world.  Has Susan's helped you? If so, please strongly consider donating... you'll make this cute baby goat even happier!

I can't add much what to Grace said because she said it so well, but it's true. Think about the help you have received here. 5 dollars is a small price to pay for benefit for such a wonderful resource has to offer. Both Grace and I really could have used this place back during our first go around at transition. We certainly owe at least part of our success to transitioning to this place. So if you have benefited in the same, please give if you can.

As discussed in last months post on this topic I got a anonymous credit card so I could make a donation, but now I find Paypay wants to know who I am before it will process the transfer. Is there any way around this?

I don't think so, they have to know whose credit card to bill so I would imagine not because a credit card issuer is always going to want that info. Hugs

People need to buy my firearms so I can have money to send Susan's. ; ; I don't think Susan can use ammo or a rifle (despite I am sure the overwhelming temptation at times)

Either that, or get one of the several employers who have my resume's to hire me.

Being kept as I am, my access to slush money is very limited.

How do they want to confirm your identity?

I would have donated a thousand times over already, but I can't do money transfers through the internet since, well, my parents don't allow me to. And then there's the fact that I don't have that much money in the first place, and what little I have is essentially my SRS fund.
Not my fault, I keep telling myself. But it still hurts me emotionally that I can't help. More than it should, maybe.

I donated as much as I can, I only wish I could give more. Thanks for the amazing resource you provide, all of you have really helped me a lot.

They want my name/address and they are going to check its valid. I'd just make something up otherwise.

I believe banking and identity laws are at play. Hugs

They like making things difficult don't they?

Maybe Susan will accept a direct transfer? I'm sure she would keep your details private and confidential.
