Donations
To ensure groups remain self-sufficient under the 7th tradition, the cost of Zoom meetings is supported entirely by the $30 per year from individuals using Alano.ONLINE's account.
No amount of the Zoom meeting cost is supported by donations, so your group remains self-sufficient.
To that end, meetings will not be set up and no one will be asked to pay until six different meetings sign up, which will cover the cost of the Zoom account.
If you are a member of a 12-step program and want to donate to help Alano.ONLINE enhance the website, hire a licensed accountant, and things like that, please send via Zeffy. (Link TBD.) You will receive a receipt by e-mail.
After paying Zoom expenses from collected fees, and reimbursing business registration costs, the technician will pay himself "resonable salary" of $20/hr for administrative work and $50/hr for technical work, clocked in 15-minute increments, if funds are available. For now, he is volunteering. When a prudent reserve is achieved, fees will be lowered.
