It’s just survival

Raising funds to keep the blog running…Is always difficult. This August is no exception.

After a really spectacular start, we haven’t received any contributions over four of the past five days, and we’re stuck at about $320 of the $617 necessary to pay the bills this time around.

I know that it’s August, when the hockey news is relatively quiet (other than trade rumors). I know that it’s never easy to ask for funds from one’s readers, either.

But this is how a non-commercial and sponsor-free blog works, and if enduring fundraising drives is how we get by, it’s how we get by.

If you’re willing to lend a hand, 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 sign up for any of those pages” option, here’s always the Giftly option by using my email, rtxg@yahoo.com, at https://www.giftly.com

And in terms of banking options, you can contact me via email if you want to send me a paper check or cash (ask for my address), or “Zelle” me via my email, rtxg@yahoo.com.

It’s my pleasure to provide you with as much information as I can give, but this is also a job, and it requires money (it’s close to $100 a month!), time, energy and effort (a.k.a. work).

Right now, we’re also raising funds for the server, which costs $417, and a $139 bill that I’ve got to pay on the 20th of the month as well.

If you are willing or able to support this endeavor, it is greatly appreciated.

As always, thank you for your time. There is nothing more valuable in this world than a person’s time, and I am incredibly grateful that you spend a little bit of it here.
