Hey, I thought I saw somewhere that these gifts were tax deductible, right? But now I can't find it on their web page. But if it is, you should mention it on your site, so that people go, "Oh yeah, I have taxes coming up, I should donate stuff."

I know whereof I speak, since we're always careful to get something out to the donors during this month for our nonprofit, and it's worthwhile.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

That's what the fund lady said! Tax deductible!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Awesome. That will really help, I think.

Kristen is like one of those little elves that takes care o' shit while I'm sleeping.

I promise not to ask for your first born child or any other creepy shit like that.

Wow, that site is amazing! Go Kristen!

Allyson and Kristen, I don't care if I repeat what others (including myself, in the past) have said: you so totally rock.

Wow, the site and you guys totally rock.

Allyson, I noticed you don't have any minimum for the raffle. Did you want it to be one name per raffle regardless of how many separate receipts a person may enter? That would prevent someone who was going to donate $50 to make 50 separate $1 donations and increase their odds 50 times of winning a prize. If so, you might want to make that clear on the site.

Also have you thought about adding a second tier to your raffle? Say donations of $100 or more (cumulative) get entered into a grand raffle with maybe dinner with a well-known writer or actor? You could even wait to see if you can get such a prize before offering it. Just a thought.

Wolfram, I thought about the multiple donations, but I think I trust fandom on this one.

I haven't even gotten any scripts yet, so I don't know as I'll be able to get a dinner out of the folks.

I know. It hasn't even been 24 hours. I'm just impatient about shows getting on roads.

I think that tiered donating is a great idea, but I'm not sure that a dinner is the way to go. I mean, I would LOVE to have dinner with Marti Noxon, but getting to LA would make it a bit prohibitive. Maybe a phone call or something like that
