PowWows.com Holiday Charity Fund Raiser

Paul G · 11-07-2002, 11:25 AM

Over the past few years this site has continued to grow. I believe that it is time, as a Community, for us to give something back!

This Holiday Season, let's show others the power PowWows.com and make a donation.

The goal of this year's fund raiser is to collect $1,000 for the American Indian College Fund.

Contributions can be made several ways including by mail, Amazon.com, and PayPal.com.

Amazon.com and PayPal.com will charge a small transaction fee for each donation.

Below are the links to donate through Amazon.com.

Donations will be accepted until Jaunuary 1, 2003.

To pay by mail, please send checks or money orders to:

Paul Gowder
109 Double Branch Court
West Columbia, SC 29169

Thanks for your contributions!

Donate through Amazon.com

Amazon Honor System

WAY TO GO WEBBIE!

Is there a way to keep us posted on the amount collected so far. . .and have updates? So we'll know how well we are doing???

Paul G · 11-07-2002, 02:21 PM

The Amazon.com link does show how much was collected on Amazon. I'll also post totals here as we go along.

Please help promote this by letting all of your online friends know!

Thanks

Paul G · 11-16-2002, 01:02 PM

We are on our way!

The total is at $30 donated.

Remember if each of us on the boards give $5 we'll generate over $25,000!

question: why is there a $4 "shipping and handling" fee to make a donation through PayPal? I use PayPal myself to sell my crafts, so I know this fee was set up by you, not PayPal. What's the deal?

Paul G · 11-16-2002, 02:46 PM

I didn't know that it was showing up.

That is my standard fee for shipping for shirts, hats, etc.

I'll see if I can take that off for donations.

this is great will have to forward on to family
thanks for the info

Paul G · 11-24-2002, 12:03 AM

We're up to $55 now!

Keep them coming!

Paul G · 11-30-2002, 11:28 PM

I can't get the PayPal method to work without the shipping, sorry.

Sometime in the next few days, however, I'll have the PowWows.com Store open. You'll be able to donate through the store without having a PayPal or Amazon account.

Thanks!

Paul G · 12-12-2002, 08:03 AM

We are now at $130. Thanks for the new donations!!

Keep it coming folks!

Paul G · 12-15-2002, 07:39 PM

Ok, we are at $150.

Please consider giving!
