Greetings fellow exmos!
It has been a year since our last fund raiser and our account with the ISP has run dry, so it's time to do it again. I will admit: we hate to ask for money but the cost realities of hosting, bandwidth, etc. require us to occasionally request donations.
The site costs about $2500/year to operate, and our goal this time around is to raise two years worth of funding or $5000.
Please use the Paypal donation button you can see by scrolling to the bottom of the home page:
https://www.exmormon.org(Note: The Paypal site has Eric's name on it, as well as RfM. For those of you who haven't been here that long, Eric founded exmormon.org and set up the Paypal site. Paypal has changed its identity rules recently so it now puts the person's name up front. Please be assured that Eric gets none of the money donated here. 100% of the finds will go to our ISP to pay for the cost of running the site.)
You can use a credit card or your Paypal account (if you have one). If you want to pay by check or money order, you can send that directly to our ISP:
Wingnet
P.O. Box 2605, Cleveland, TN, 37320
Make sure to write "For exmormon.org" in the memo field so that they know to credit it to us.
No one is required to donate. This is strictly voluntary and we're not going to push anyone into doing it. If you're broke, then don't worry about giving your "widow's mite". The site does need money, but not badly enough to harm a donor. However, if you do have the money and you feel that the world is better with exmormon.org up and running, then a donation would be greatly appreciated. If you happen to be feeling flush, dig deep! Last time we got enough for one year and we'd like to make it two this time.
Imagine how the community here has helped you through the Covid crisis. Plus, exmormon.org is cheaper than Starbucks and waaaay cheaper then tithing. And think of the leverage your donations here enable against the church! How many dollars of tithing money has Exmormon.org deprived Mormonism of for every dollar donated here? I don't know, but it's a fun thing to think about.
Remember that no one in our administrative/moderator cadre gets paid for their work. We are strictly volunteers. All of the donated money goes to paying expenses involved in running the site.
We will post an anonymized list of donations as they come in. We will also pull down this request as soon as we have reached our goal.
Thank you for your continued support and generosity!
CZ (who loveth a cheerful giver, and all exmos)
