May 2024 Donations & Finances


Recommended Posts

  • City Council

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.

 


 

Homecoming operates in a non-profit capacity* and accepts donations from the community each month to cover its operating expenses. These donation windows typically open on the last Saturday of each month, around 13:00 EST, and are automatically closed once the goal for the month has been reached. Any funds remaining at the end of each month are put towards our expenses for the following month. In the event that our expenses exceed our estimated costs for the month, the difference will be included in the donation goal for the following month.

 

If you wish to donate, you may do so here. The donation window for next month is open as of the time of this post and will automatically close once the goal is met. Thank you for your continued support!

 

* Homecoming is a Delaware registered Limited Liability Company, not a non-profit organization, and donations made to Homecoming are not tax deductible.

"I wear these colors for me. Not for the government, not for any partisan group, not for any ideological group-think and certainly not because I think I'm #$%@ing superior to anyone else! And other Americans may not feel the same way, some justifiably or not, too angry to represent. And as long as they're not hurting anyone else, there's nothing wrong with that, which puts you a mother%#@&er like you out of the category! I like the people here, man. Even those with struggles and life experiences different from mine. I want to help them be as happy as I am, as they can possibly be. You're going to remember that every time you see these %^#ing colors, Omniphase." -American Speedster, from "Harder, Daddy" Chapter 1 of the "Philippine-Born, U.S.A. Forged" series (Fanfic Available To Read Soon!)
