Sim Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The BalletcoForum Committee would like to thank all of you who have thus far made a financial contribution to the running of the site and ensuring its continuation into the future. We have just made our first payment of the monthly bill out of your donations. Until now about an eighth of our 800 registered members have contributed, which means that seven eighths have not (!), so with that in mind I'm posting this up to ask those of you who value the site and have not yet made a donation to please consider doing so. The more donations we can raise now, the longer it will be before we have to ask again and, with more people donating, we might be able to lower the suggested amount in future. Donating is easy....please click on the link below for more details, or see the relevant section on the BalletcoForum's home page. With many thanks from all of us to all of you.

Dragonlady Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 done! I wasnt sure how much you needed before but £10.00 is just right. Trudi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottie Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Done. £10 seems the right amount. I get a lot of good information from this site so I'm happy to pay £10 to go towards keeping this site open. Come on everyone else, please try and donate something, if you can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stirrups36 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 lots of info for ballet dads too. As we started our ballet journey, all the comments (even the ones we didn't agree with on 'doing dance'!!!!) were useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ja Sm Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Just returned from holiday and have donated without hesitation. I remember how upset I felt when I thought the site had closed and that made me realise how much I value the suppot, advice and friendship I receive. I can only urge you all to do likewise. Thank you to everyone who keeps it up and running. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Whew I feel better, just donated. Just want to say everyone said how sad they were if this site couldn't continue, well all we have to do is give £10.00 this site is well worth the money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Living the Dream Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Sorry for the delay, but just donated £10 as I have found this site and it's members invaluable. Thank you all. LTD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawberry Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Very much a reader than a poster, but have got lots of very useful information over the years so £10 donated. Thanks and keep up the fabulous work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afab Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Finally done after coming back from holiday... Thank you so much for running this forum which is so valuable to me and my DDs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primrose Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Got round to donating at last, sorry for the delay. I would like to say a huge thankyou to the wonderful people who work in the background keeping this wonderful site going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeliB Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Donated yesterday- sorry had no internet access before so was rather late. Would happily donate more if needed rather than see the site collapse. Having just shelled out $160 for 4 new dance tops for DS and £49.00 for DDs new pointe shoes/toe pads yada yada I feel a few more quid towards this forum (the only thing in this whole ballet merry-go-round which primarily benefits me) would be cheap at twice the price!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mallinson Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Many thanks, and to you all. Collapse averted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webfoot Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I also managed to donate over the weekend. I had to get my login sorted out (couldn't remember log in name, nor password). All sorted now, so able to donate and also post (even if it was very trivial). Thanks to all who make this site what it is. I have to have my fill of balletco daily if possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin64 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks for the site. It is always helpful and interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amum/Cathy Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 When I donated I wasn't logged in. Does the site marry up the email addresses with the user names? Just wondering if you are running a list of members who have donated, that's all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
