Donate and Support A&F!

Hi everybody!
Currently, our tech admin and ejwsites.net owner, Jochen Weber, shells out $150 each month so that we can have a site and message board to visit. He has done so for years without much thanks or fanfare...
Jochen has registered with PayPal, so that anyone who feels compelled to contribute to the site is able to with ease and security. You can make a donation here. 
We are currently brainstorming more ideas to raise money (obtaining and selling Elijah's autograph from the TORn party is NOT an option), so if you have any ideas, PLEASE share them below!
Many many many thanks,
- Mad/A&F Staff

WOW! That's really nice!!!! Thanks Jochen!!
But.. umm... I'm really bad at money-raising ideas... The best one I can think of is a bake sale and that wouldn't quite work here...

*Rafferty's brain has turned to mush after such deep pondering*
With the copyright restrictions taken in consideration; fund raising options are pretty limited. However. Here's my "whittle" idea.
This site could offer t-shirts with Elijah's name on the front written in Elvish script. And underneath...in English...The one actor who rules them all!
Edited to add:
I have the Elvish script for Elijah's name. If this idea meets with the Board Mommies and Daddies approval...Just give me a call AND I'll send it to you. *bg*

Lj has suggested that along with another cool idea so we'll be sure to give details when it's a bit more organized.
Please feel free to suggest any other fundraising ideas, and as always:
Thanks for your support!

| You know, that really is a good idea! There's one thing wrong though. Won't people confuse A&F as Abercrombie and Fitch? We gotta come up with something that will show that that is NOT what it is.

Congrats

Good point. Lj also brought up of maybe having a cartoon picture of Elijah on the shirt, now that's begging to differ from Abercrombie & Fitch, I think.

I remember talking about my A&F hoodies and shirts and people thinking I had A&F board clothing.
We could always write out
Always & Forever
though.

Thank you everybody who donated. I was wondering whether there are enough people with Creditcards on this site who feel like supporting it.
And just in case revenues exceed server maintenance fees, I'll be glad to sponsor A+F in any form possible. I will get in touch with Lucy to discuss this further 
Best wishes and regards, /jochen

Hahaha, like there exist a crazy fruitcake who would give me a creditcard. I almost have a negative income. If there was anything I could do, I would. I don't know anything about fundraising. My bro plays counterstrike and their websites and servers are fully sponsored by three company's but since that is cybergaming, not a message board and site, that's a whole different matter.

I like the clothing idea as well, though it'd take a while for me to be able to afford one. 
But I'd be really dorky cool!
