    Jeff, How about running some 14 day or even 7 day auctions on items people might donate. They do that on VMF and get some heavy $$ raised..

    You don't even need to run it yourself.. Have the donater post an item and take bids. Highest bidder after 1 or 2 weeks donates the funds to HPS..

    Run the ads as sticky's..

    Rules are easy....you bid...you win...you pay...you donate.

    How many members does the site have. I am sure that if it divided up it wouldn't be that much per person.

    There is no pressure to donate. Between the sponsors and donations the site is in the black. The above amount is for the server only. It does not include domain registration and software cost etc. Every little bit of support helps.

    Since June of 2006 HPS has received $880 in members donations which are greatly appreciated.
