Gamers, friends, and fans...

First, happy 9 Month Anniversary! Believe it or not, Decatur Gamers has been here for 9 months! We've made some good friends and played some great games in that time. And we're looking forward to more.

As you know, we solicit donations at each of our Meetup events. Granted, we don't really do a very good job of this - we just set out a box and hope for the best. In the past, we were able to pay the Meetup website fees mostly from the donations received. Unfortunately, this billing period, we are very short and we need your help.

We are looking to raise $72 by February 15th, in order to pay for an additional 6 months of fees. If we are unable to raise this money, we will have to make some tough choices.

Keep in mind that there are no "membership fees" to be a part of Decatur Gamers, and we rarely charge anything for our Meetups (with the exception of special events). But we rely on donations in order to pay the fees for the website, advertising, etc.

If you can donate, you can do so with Paypal here:

Or, if you don't use Paypal but would still like to donate, please message me and we'll work something out. I will post here as we work our way toward the $72 goal.

Thank you all so much for your support of our little gaming group. Hope to see you all at our next Game Day!

Matt

Cool!

Hey, we can become a non-profit corporation for under $200. Even cheaper if we do all the paperwork ourselves. Then all donations are tax deductible.
