I made a single donation of $50 a few days ago because I always like doing that better than committing to monthly. I'll be doing it again when I can. I know budgeting is easier if you have monthly commitments, but for some of us giving here and there instead of monthly works better. Only a relatively few giving monthly doesn't look good. But how many give larger amounts one or a few times? Just curious.
@depserv Thank you for doing what you can. I would be tickled pink if there were a ton of posts like yours stating that they give money to the cause on a semi–regular basis. I do not mean to demean anyone for not doing a regular monthly donation. Everyone runs their finances differently, but for many people, if they don't set up a regular payment, it gets put on the back burner. If you are organized enough to make sure it happens, not every month, but on a reasonably regular basis, good for you. Though the great thing about monthly donations is that I can tally them into a nice little table and post the results for everyone to see our progress.
For the rest of you, as I already stated in an earlier post, a $5/month donation is not going to be noticed by most of us. JUST once a month...$5...the price of a Venti mocha non-fat no foam extra hot latte at Starbucks, a pack of cigarettes, or a couple of your favorite draft beers.
