How about setting up a shopping cart for donations? I have set them up before in $1, $5, etc amounts so a person could donate any amount they desired. There are several versions out there so you can stay away from the jew run PayPal. With a shopping cart, people can use a credit or debit card and it is automatically deposited into a bank account. That would make it convenient for a VNN'er to make a monthly contribution without ever leaving his or her computer.

Good idea, but I don't think it's asking people too much (that dont want to use a shopping cart or paypal over the internet) to take 5 minutes out of their day - once a month - to stop at the post office and mail some cash in an envelope?

What does a stamp cost .35 cents? You could find that under one of your car seats!

I posted this in another thread.......

Ok Rounder, my donation is on the way, just got back from the post office. I'm going to try and donate at the beginning of every month whatever I can to support VNN as an operation or vehicle of producing White Nationalist material (10,20,30,50,100$).

What I would suggest for VNN, is that they should create a monthly fund drive and publish it here on the forum or on the front page. Much like what Hal Turner does, he lists the Names of the Contributors (whatever name or Stormfront/VNN board name was provided in the letter), what state/country it came from, and how much they sent. This is obviously done to show the donator that his/or her contribution was received, also it lets everyone know who's donating to the cause, so that the do nothings of the movement will be exposed. This should be suggested to Alex, or maybe you could do it yourself Rounder. It will motivate people to send money every month. You guys could easily collect 5,000 - 10,000 a month with no problem, maybe even more?

If 500 board members sent in 10$ every month that's 5,000$ for the month alone & 5,000$ x 12 months = 60,000$ for the year.

or:

What do you guys think about this idea?

Sounds damn excellent to me Stormfront (and thanks for sending me some money). Emac's idea sounds excellent too, though I confess my ignorance of running credit card "stuff", never having had one myself, nor has my wife. But I guess all I'd have to do is set up a special bank account, then cash checks when I need money for TAA expenses.

Just hope it doesn't wind up causing me more work, and headaches.

As you may know, from day one I established a policy that guarantees full financial accounting and disclosures. I post screen names and amount of contributions on VNNF on day of receipt. Then when I close the books on each TAA edition, I tally up all receipts, post the amount on TAA, and then mail all receipts to Alex Linder for his inspection and files.

In 14 months, only one VNN'er claimed to have sent me money that was not posted on VNNF. A $50.00 donation. But he is a GD liar. (His name escapes my memory for now, but he knows who he is).

As for monthly pledges, I'll tell you my experience with that. Back when I ran the WPP, I started out asking for monthly pledges, but guess what? Many who made pledges, found out later they either couldn't or wouldn't live up to them, and just quit the WPP, rather than be embarrassed/lose face. It's kinda like your best friend who owes you money, but would rather lose the friendship than pay you.

Let's hear some more insights/recommendations regarding your idea and Emac's.

I understand your frustration, me personally I'm only 22, but for the last year or so I've listened to so many people in this movement whine, bitch, and complain about nothing ever getting done on the ground or in the Alternative media - but then at the same time some of these same individuals that partake in this, do nothing themselves and refuse to contribute financially to anything, and to me that's being a f****** Jew, you know who you are, and Rounder I'm sure you've seen many instances of this over the years.

This is why the addition of a monthly fund drive could only be a positive thing, considering the fact that you're not forcing anyone to contribute, it's up to them, let them put actions or financial backing behind their words on this forum and others.
