Members pay more if they can afford it but really it is down to each individual. Once the "new" PayPal account is up and running, Bears will be able to donate anytime throughout the Season. Good to have your pledge. What she said. The minimum £10 (or more if you can!) "membership fee" is treated like any other donation to the Fund, except that because it's your first of the season, it counts as your membership, and gets your name added on the list. (Being on that list brings several unpublicised benefits btw, but we don't use that as an incentive to join). Once you've paid that initial donation, there are no further requirements on you for the remainder of the season. Anything else you donate is either at your own whim, or a completely optional response to any particular cry for help I may make as the season continues. Some of our members have relatively higher incomes than you or I, and they are more than welcome to throw large sums of money towards us as often as they like but for most of us, it's as you describe it. Sometimes we run an additional (optional) Fundraiser in November (the time of Remembrance) to make sure we have enough money to help Erskine through their Christmas and New Year parties (the time of Celebration). Oh, and we'd be more than happy to receive a wee bung from any particularly good bookies wins you may get. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
govanblue 16,847 Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 Oh, and I forgot to add 3 of our traditional Argyle Restaurant Lunches - so there's another £600! How could I forget our "Erskine Lunch Fund" Roots? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
