Donations
- We need more donations to help build up the slush fund
- Without donations, we're not going to be able to reach our goals of getting our own space.
- Would it be easier for people to donate if we send out invoices monthly/bimonthly via paypal / email?
  - Paypal account is *not* needed to donate, can use any credit / checking card.
  - Paypal takes 2.9% and 30 cents of each donation. Every bit we get helps though. No amount too small.
