How about some donation matching?

[farmerbw]

In response to Hank's thread I've got an idea.... How about some donation matching? Since my employer won't match my donations to our great site as they claim it doesn't meet their criteria... :icon_scra I'll offer up some matching of my own.

Through midnight tonight, or there abouts, I'll match the next 10 folks who donate $10 each. Can't spare $10? I'll match $5 donations too, up to whatever combinations get to $100 total.

Who's in? Any others up for some matching of their own? Let's see if we can't get the bar moving again.:wsmile:

I tried to donate through PAYPAL, but couldn't get beyond address page. May be related to Linux OS. I'll be sending a check for $50.00 in the next day or so.

I think that tapped Brian out - do we have another able to "threaten" a match?
(and if it didn't Brian - let us know...)

We need $24 more dollars (as I calculate it) and then an even GRAND to close out this session!

OK I am in

I will match all donations from now until midnight

There is some fine print here - test me

 

[Berta]

You're done Brian, you owe me $100.
Ok people MAKE PHIl ​Pay!

 

[farmerbw]

Thanks Mark for taking the last bite!:thumbs_up

Berta, thanks for keeping track and I'll hit paypal in a few minutes......

But....... since Phil threw out a new challenge I'll sweeten the deal a little bit to keep things going and throw another $25 in for him to match!! :gar-Bi

Who else is willing to get in on Phil's offer?!?!?!

[Berta]

Ok Phil there is $25 you owe me, who is next!?

 

[pviser]

Okay, I just put in $150. I should have done it sooner. Sorry for the delay.

 

[Berta]

Phil, your total is $175

 

[Berta]

Look at the total NOW!

Brian, your matching donation came in during my selected time frame so I will match your total effectively 3xing those donations - hopefully a win for everybody, especially NCWW

NEXT We need to get this done

 

[Berta]

Looks like I didn't see the time that Paul donated. Sorry Phil, there was only $125 in the select d time frame.

Phil, I put in $100 a couple of days ago (right before your offer), but if you're willing to consider another match I'll donate another $100.....
