Our first donation stream!
Added 2020-08-29 17:32:42 +0000 UTCHello, Residents! Our first month is nearly complete, having reached 530 Patrons and $4695 as of right now, with a couple more days to go! We’ve got a plan for how to vote/distribute the money for this first month:
This coming Monday, August 31st, Mike will host a LIVE STREAM on our Patreon page at 12 noon eastern time. Mike will be there live with a chat feature so he can interact with all of you. Bear may also show up!
Mike will announce the 4 charities that are being nominated. This month, Mike, Dan, and Sam will each nominate a charity, and the fourth will be selected from the Charity channel on our Residents-only Discord. We will then post a poll on Patreon where all Residents can give their vote on where to give the money.
This poll will be open for 48 hours, closing Wednesday September 2nd at 12:30 ET. Most votes wins.
The live stream will be quickly processed and then live on our Patreon page to be watched later for those who couldn’t join live.
In the future, the pool of charities to be voted on will adjust to provide as diverse an opportunity as possible for different charities/approaches to be heard. We will do this every month, so there will always be new selection methods and destinations!
As August is our first month doing this, please bear with any technical glitches. A year from now this will be a well oiled machine, but this month we have to iron our the kinks and get the workflow perfect. We appreciate your patience.
