Yesterday at our All Hands Meeting, we were given some great news, that our Annual Fundraiser known as "Give 5" ,was under way. And yes folks, the "hype" is real.
We hold the annual fundraiser because it is how we at TAW cover our expenses. Everything from Server Costs, to TS, Licencing and more.
Overview
2017 Total Revenue: $6,569.15
2017 Total Expense: $6,639.19
TAW 2017 Budget chart
Fundraiser will be conducted from April 29 - May 27.
Targets
If all members donated.
2,700 members @ $5 = $13,500
This would mean we would not need another fundraiser whilst current CIC
Realistically would only expect half of the the members to donate.
1,350 members @ $5 = $6,750
Would still need a fundraiser next year. if did not have one towards end of this year.
Yup, those are some BIG numbers adding up right quick, but when broken down, it's really something so simple as donating $5 to our Community Fund......but WAIT! There is another way my friend that YOU can qualify to GIVE 5!
That's right, there is another way. In fact, it's a win - win way. So first thing you have to do is go to either NA or EU Shop and go to the Fundraiser Section (being the nice guy I am, the links will take you right there...you're welcome ).So from here, you now have options. First, choose any of the Give 5 products (2017 or 2018 Designs both qualify) and make the purchase. Second, click on the "CREATE" option which is found underneath the header, pick your product you want it on -> Select either Give 5 Design (choose the colors you want the design to be) -> Add you callsign/division somewhere (extra cost for this part)-> continue shopping or finalize purchase.
There you go, now you have just ...nope, wait not yet. One more step, and that's to let us know that you did make the purchase by filling out the Give 5 Shop Verification Form.
So now you've just "Given 5", got yourself some cool swag, also filled out the normal Shop Verification Form to get your Swagster Tab issued to you for making a purchase, but the best thing is, you made the purchase between May 2-7 and ended up getting FREE SHIPPING!!!! Yes, that's right! From May 2nd - May 7th, our supplier is giving FREE SHIPPING on all Shop purchases. So make sure you selected this option and saved yourself those shipping charges.
