April 2025 Donations & Finances

[Cipher]

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 wasn't able to donate last month, so I made up for that this month by donating 2.5x my normal donation... 1x for March, 1x for April, and 0.5x for the 2x xp goodness the 1st half of April will entail. \o/ 😄

My monthly effort to help keep Paragon City, and the Rogue Isles fully funded, was successful!  Once again, the day is saved!

[Healix]

I am on a fixed income and wish II could donate more, but I will do what I can.  Thanks to all of you who keep our wonderful game up and running!

Donations started a bit later than usual  this month...I could not stick around, unfortunately.

Glad you made the goal.
