Forum Running Costs - Funds Needed
Posted: Fri Feb 16, 2024 6:12 am
Unfortunately the time has come to pass the begging bowl round the Forum membership and any also unregistered folk who simply just read the board and feel willing to contribute.
Last year it totalled approx £165 for the various annual Host fees, registration fees, etc, to keep the Forum running. Back in November 2020, the appeal at that time raised sufficient cash to keep us going until now. However, our bank balance currently stands at £151.49 which, even without the inevitable annual rises, will be insufficient to keep the Forum going in a few months time. If that happens everything will cease and all posts, files, pictures, links, etc, will simply disappear.
In an attempt to make things simple, there is now a PayPal link at the top of the Index page, together with a "How To..." in the relevant section.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing the forum on a phone in normal Portrait ( vertical) orientation, the PP link may have moved into the DropDown list at the LH side. In Landscape/Horizontal orientation it will be as shown in this screenshot.
PLEASE PUT YOUR FORUM USERNAME ON YOUR PP FORM. IF YOU DO NOT, THERE IS NO WAY FOR US TO KNOW WHO A PAYMENT IS FROM
Please dig deep and send your contribution, however small, to " paypal@gardenrails.org " .
Just one more thing, please ensure that you select the "Family & Friends" option in PP to avoid them deducting a sizeable commission from your donation.
