A few very important words about "donating."
This is a chance for you, as a patron-of-the-arts, to directly help me take my career to the next level (whether you tithe $10 or $10,000, all donations are appreciated). Though it is called it a "donation," I am not a registered charity, nor am I a not-for-profit organization and, therefore, your "donation" to this project is not tax deductable and is not a charitable donation. It is simply a gift -- and one for which I am very grateful. If I am unable to raise the desired funds, I will refund your money in full. By making a donation, you are, by definition not purchasing anything from me. However, to show my gratitute, I am offering the following gifts to you, if you make donations in the corresponding amounts.
If you would like to give at a different level than is listed, have a question about donating, would like to be an investor, or would like to give anonymously via cashier's check or money order, please email us at hopewaits.grassroots@gmail.com.
