Fun with fundraising

I’m hesitant to do these fundraising posts, but…

We’re approximately $640 into a $5,500 fundraising effort, and we haven’t even covered the amount that the Bluehost and Jetpack server fees are going to cost later this month, never mind the $4,500 or so that it’s going to take to actually get up to Traverse City.

As such, it’s time to get down to business. I know that TMR restarted at a time of year that was not ideal for reader responses, but we’re trying very hard to fundraise for the purposes of both ensuring TMR’s future (via paying for the server fees) and then (hopefully) send me and my 82-year-old Aunt Annie up to Traverse City to cover the Red Wings’ prospect tournament and main training camp.

That doesn’t happen without you. And now I need your help, because we’re just over a calendar month away from training camp, and things are very, very quiet.

I understand that it’s still late summer for hockey fans, and that August is not optimal in terms of timing to attempt to raise funds for anything hockey-related, but now’s the time to get this train rolling.

If you want TMR to exist, and TMR to head to training camp so that I may provide my yearly service to you, please consider donating to the cause.

If you’re willing to lend a hand, we have an official GoFundMe fundraiser page here; we have a PayPal option at https://paypal.me/TheMalikReport; there’s Venmo at https://venmo.com/george-malik-2; if you’re into the, “I don’t want to use any of those pages” option, here’s always the Giftly option by using my email, rtxg@yahoo.com, at https://www.giftly.com

You can contact me via email if you want to send me a paper check, or “Zelle” me via my email, rtxg@yahoo.com. And I’m also on Cash App under “georgeums.”

Thank you for your time and your readership.
