Hey guys,
As you know, the MEFAs are run mostly by volunteers who share their time and talents to make the awards run smoother every year. People don't participate in the MEFAs - as volunteers or authors - for the money. Their simply isn't any. But the company that provides our web space does occasionally expect us to pay them. Every year around this time we collect donations so we can pay their fees.
Any donations will be used to pay official site expenses like our web site fees. You can pay by debit/credit card using Paypal (which is quite secure, and we will never see your information).
If you prefer you can also mail me cash or check and I will make the donation on your behalf.
email me and I will send you my address.
And don't worry if you can't donate to us. Some of you are students on limited budgets. And with the bad economy, I am sure many people dare having a hard time affording all the things they need and want to do. If you don't feel you can afford to donate, you can also support the awards by finding good fic to nominate next year and participating in any capacity when the time comes. But for those of you who do want to chip in for site expenses, now's the time.
