Donations to the Convention

[LaDonna]

What about setting up a paypal account dedicated solely to this cause..... that way if people/ companies/ etc. want to start contributing to the event they can.

It might make it a little easier for some to contribute.... that way they can give maybe $5 a month rather than one larger lump sum towards the end.

Of course no donation is a requirement.... just if they have the desire to help out.

This might give us a better idea of where we are budget wise and how much we would need to sell "tickets" for or how much more work we would need to do for donations towards the end.

i think thats a good idea. Who would be the owner of the paypal....or set it up and have access to it I guess is a better term?

I feel like it would need to be a separate checking account dedicated solely to this purpose.... rather than someone's personal account. I think everyone would be more likely to contribute and be assured that their money is used for the cause.

Yeah that does sound like a good idea. And I agree finding someone to be able to have access to it that everyone agrees with. Ya know?

[Shantell12]
