January 2024 Donations & Finances

Hello everyone!

 

As always with these posts, I’d like to drop a quick reminder that there are more ways to support Homecoming than just through donations. For a general overview of the different ways you can help Homecoming, check out this thread.

 


 

Holiday Support Closure

 

Homecoming will be suspending all non-critical support from December 23rd to December 27th to give our wonderful volunteers a well-deserved break for the holidays. During this time, response times for support requests will be longer than usual, and we’ll be heavily prioritizing time-sensitive issues.

 


Last Month: December 2023

 

Last month we accepted $4,662.79 in donations, $2.25 over our target for the month. As always, any additional funding remaining at the end of each month is put towards our operating expenses for the following month or additional expenses for the current month.

 

Here is the breakdown of our expenses in December:

  • $4,416.99 for our hardware infrastructure from OVH
  • $350.00 for GL insurance from Hiscox
    • Included in January’s donation target
  • $120.64 for our Google G-Suite services
  • $105.00 to renew our forum software license
  • $25.00 for our Air instance from Paperspace
  • $19.81 for the AWS EC2 instance serving our email
  • $9.73 for security / administration software (redacted)

This Month: January 2024

 

The donation target for January 2024 is $4,935.74. Here is a breakdown of how the funds are allocated:

  • $4,416.99 for our hardware infrastructure from OVH
  • $350.00 for GL insurance from Hiscox
    • Included here as it was not in the target for December
  • $121.57 for our Google G-Suite services
  • $25.00 for our Air instance from Paperspace
  • $19.25 for the AWS EC2 instance serving our email
  • $9.73 for security / administration software (redacted)

 


 

Our donation system will be open as of the time of this post with a donation target of $4,935.74 and will automatically close once that target is met.

The insurance company is named Hiscox 🤔

 

Quote

Hiscox Ltd. is an Anglo-Bermudan insurance provider, listed on the London Stock Exchange. An underwriter at Lloyd's of London, the company largely specialises in niche areas of the market, offering property and casualty insurance aimed at companies and high-net-worth individuals, as well as cover against such risks as hacking, kidnapping and satellite damage.

 

So, what I'm reading here is that Hiscox is totally in on the Nemesis weather satellite plot.

 

COINCIDENCE?! I think not!

Oh wow, I was expecting the donations window to open tonight (Saturday), and I wasn't paying too much attention... 

It seems that I've missed the window..............

 

You got me this time, but there's always next time...

Huge thanks to our community for helping our city stay alive!

 

See you guys in-game.
