Help Keep BTG Thriving: Crucial Fundraiser

Hello, BTG community,

October is here, and it’s time for our second fundraiser of 2024!  For those new to BTG, we hold a fundraiser every six months to maintain our Burning The Ground PayPal account. These funds support site hosting, security, monitoring, protection, requested records, and equipment maintenance.

Why This Fundraiser Is Crucial:

This fundraiser is crucial to keep BTG thriving. I recently received an email from our hosting service informing us that they are updating CPU and storage limits to enhance website performance. As a result, BTG will be moved to a higher-priced tier, increasing our hosting costs from $295.50 to $422.14 every two years. Additionally, we pay $200 annually for website security and firewall protection through Sucuri.

Due to these rising expenses, I’ve raised our fundraising goal from $1,500 to $2,000, which I believe we can achieve together. With the renewal date approaching on November 1,

How You Can Help:

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. You can help by visiting our Donation page on PayPal or by clicking one of the yellow donate buttons throughout the site. Donations can be made securely using your debit card, credit card, or PayPal account.

Your support is invaluable and ensures that BTG continues to thrive. Thank you for being a part of our community!
