Evening all,

I'm not the best with this PR or announcements stuff - but I'm just going to write a little about the topic of donations.

Donations are incredibly important to the Cav and it's existence. It doesn't always need to be a direct mapping of Company or Battalion X donates to Y services, because we all are welcomed to play on each others servers. We often work together to maintain them, through the proxy of support departments. Irregardless of our primary billets.

In November of 2021, I said in the CSC that we were struggling for donations. I even make a stink of it on discord, and we together manaed to raise x2 of our normal $700 target.

However, both December and January we've fallen short. Not as much as pre November 2021, but it's still not great to see so soon after it being raised as an issue.

I want to to highlight that if each of us donated just $5 a month, we'd be set each and every month. That's almost 2 coffees in some neck of the world.

As such, today I am rolling out a new tool for donations. It looks remarkably similar to the old one, except this new tool offers the ability to set recurring donations through a paypal donation subscription.



We will continue to have the ability to make one time donations. But It would be amazing if you could look at setting up that $5 a month subscription.

I've been asked today about if we would offer VIP or some kind of 'perks' to donators. We've discussed this a few times in General staff. Ultimately, myself and others in Gen Staff really don't like this idea. It sets up the slippery slope to a 2-tier Cav member world. One where 'those who donated' are seen as different or even 'higher'. That's not a world I want us to go into.

Leadership elements please ensure this is passed down.
