Pride of Nottingham Donation Drive

[Chris]

I'm not going into a long winded reason behind this, however, I will say for the past two seasons I have pushed selling my artwork and on match days attempting to complete 1/2 spot the ball cards.

This has been well supported, but I wouldn't be asking if I could cope by my own means.

The suspension to football, the coronavirus and situation we find ourselves in is going to be a task. We should all support each other where possible, so I would like to ask our community to consider donating to PON - https://prideofnottingham.co.uk/donate/

Any support will go to ensuring upkeep is met.

Thank you,
Chris

i donated mate, it says i did 15 hours ago but i only did it before i started posting.

good luck with this.

[Chris]

Possibly a bug, I'll look into it and report it to the dev if it can't be fixed.

I expect it to be hard, but any support will help and which I am thankful for. Thank you for supporting this @liampie.

Donated @Chris, worth e-mailing about it in a bulk message?

[Chris]

Thank you @CliftonMagpie!

I'm pleased to say with 4 donations so far, we have hit 12% of the projected target. It's a difficult time, I know but I appreciate every effort made. It's not something I say easily, those who would consider donating in times like this are gems (nothing against those who can't).

I have made a small donation, good luck.

I would like to stress I see this as a slow project, the donation drive is set to stop at the end of May - yet I might need to extend it (It all depends).

We're on 22% with 8 people kindly donating.

I sent a bulk e-mail out a few days ago, I felt overwhelmed by the support it gained. Not just in the donations it received, but the positive messages sent wishing me well. Naturally, it seems as if some feel bad for not being able to chip in - this for me shows kindness and, I can't say enough I don't expect it. I honestly thought the donation drive would be slower at this stage and, although I feel it will reach a natural point where it stops. I will be thankful for all considerations, not just from those who donate.

As I say, I see it as a slow thing hence why I'm not mentioning it much. I have tweeted about via the PON Merch account, RT via the main PON account on Twitter but that's all for a few days - if not late next week.

Thank you for all who have donated, it takes a lot of pressure off my family.

I wished I could give more @Chris

[liampie]

i would be happy to donate something every month until football is back @Chris, if it helps.

[Chris]

@liampie let's see how things go, I'm hoping there's enough people out there who would help, I know the situation will make it difficult for a lot of people.

So, I'm pleased and keen go at a steady pace.

[TheSkipper]

I will donate soon @Chris.

[AmericanPie]

I wish you well @Chris, you deserve to reach the target for all you do.

At this stage I cannot donate but I will keep it in mind when I can even if you do not ask.

No rush, I've set the donation drive to run up to May which is where I have put things into perspective at this stage.

The funds raised will help massively towards keeping the lights on.

Done. Sorry it couldn't be more.

I’ll either sound boring or too polite, but it’s me. Never be sorry for helping, it’s the thought and, consideration that matters.

We have all been dealt a blow with this pandemic.

Thank you @hissingdwarf

PON has raised 26% if the projected target, please note that each month the percentage is reset.

This is by monthly, although the overall amount will be mentioned.

Thanks for your support.

[Chris]

I'm aware that things around PON have been quiet largely due to my absence, yet the footing of the site and, our community is in better shape.

I would ask that any members able to spare a donation, please do consider supporting us.
