Where Does the Money Go?
Keeping Boston Virtual ATC up and running costs a significant amount of money. We rely on the donations of our members to keep the site and server running. Our budget is accessible from the link below:
Boston Virtual ATC's 2010-2011 Budget
All donations made to Boston Virtual ATC will be processed by Paypal. Paypal charges BVA their standard $0.30 per transaction plus 2.9% of each donation. Thus, the suggested minimum donation is $5 (although any amount helps, and is greatly appreciated). A $5 donation will net BVA $4.55; a $10 donation will net $9.41.
With the exception of PayPal's service charge, every cent of your donation will go directly to paying service costs. All donations and expenses are also recorded on our budget document (linked above) which is updated monthly. You will receive a donation receipt once your payment is processed.
Unfortunately, donations to Boston Virtual ATC are not tax deductible.
If you have any questions about donating, please do not hesitate to contact us at inquiries@bostonvirtualatc.com.
Financial Goal
Our goal is to have enough cash to cover 24 months of expenses. As you can see from our budget, we are well short of this goal. Your donations are vital to our continued operation!
