Donations to support this forum

[ZEROPILOT]

I am wanting to help out and make a donation to this forum.
What do I need to do and what are the options for paying?

Thanks,jaizei! I don't have a Pay Pal account. It's a story for another forum.
Hopefully there is another option out there.

Hmmm didn't know we did the shopping through amazon... wish i'd known that years ago through all of my college books I probably could have funded the site for a year!
but from now on i'll be sure to do that!

It looks like the TFO donation page is out of order. I've sent Josh a private conversation letting him know about it.

The donation page is fixed now. Maybe you can contact Josh and see if he'll give you an address to send a check or money order to.

Yes, all you need to do is follow that link, there's a tfo referral id.

Ok, sorry for the dumb question but, it just takes me to my reg amazon page... is that what its supposed to do? Or is there some code I need to enter?

You can type in smile.amazon.com/ in the url space at the top of the screen.

You end up on Amazon but there's a lot going on in the link. If you right click and copy the url you can see it.

I went to Amazon Smile, but they have no listings for tortoise Forum, The Tortoise Forum, tort forum or tortoise forum.org.

I think smile.amazon is just for nonprofits, so no TFO.

I'm not 100% but I think that clicking any link to Amazon from the forum will give the forum credit for any purchases you make. So clicking Yvonne's link to smile.amazon.com (or mine just now) will credit the forum, and you select a non-profit on on Amazon to benefit from Amazon's donation.

Might have done it wrong. If I don't hear back by Monday, I'll try again.
