?I've got $116 left of the contributions donated
last year, but cannot afford to cover the rest of the $220
they want. They have a method to accept donations through an
organization called Stripe. GIO charges a 2% premium to use
that service, and Stripe charges an unknown amount to make a
donation via there service. The examples on their website seem
to be a bit over 10%, which I feel is highway robbery! I can
accept donations through Paypal, and if you make them using
the Friends and Family option, there is no charge. Since we're
not a business, that should be fine. I need a total of $84 in
donations to cover the fee. I'm kicking in $20 myself, and if
twenty people can donate $4.20, that will cover the amount I'm
short. I would prefer not to get donations over the amount we
need, as I'm in my late 60's, and I wouldn't want to die and
possibly lose the extra money for the group.?
If you care to make a donation, send it to wmrmeyers (AT)
sbcglobal (DOT) net? My understanding is that if you put a
note on it, they consider a business transaction, and charge
their premium. Think that's 4%. Just post a note on the in
this thread that you've contributed if you feel like it. The
renewal is paid by credit card, so the group won't get shut
down if I don't get the money before the renewal date, which
is December 22nd. I know that a lot of folks are a little
tight in the wallet right now. It won't hurt me if some of the
contributions come in after the first of the year. Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Year even if you don't celebrate
those holidays!?
