i am doing little more than lamenting the hurdles placed in front of me that i couldn't figure out how to overcome (albeit with a dash of frustrated snark), after having spent north of three hours of my time today. i am not rich, nor well off by many reasonable measures. i rent a small room in a small town, hardly making ends meet, but i simply wanted to donate a couple bucks toward a cause i believe in, out of principle, as i'm not usually a donating type (see bit about renting a small room and barely making ends meet).
i wanted to leave some breadcrumbs for anyone else in a similar situation (that is, trying to donate from U.S., not the bit about wealth) trying to figure out how to make it work, because i sure expended some effort digging it up.
this specific discussion thread is a call to donate and to write here in solidarity in having done so. i may not have successfully donated cold, hard cash, but i'll dare say my pledge of most of my afternoon trying to move mountains in order to send some scratch their way fits in here. it may have barely registered as a drop in the bucket had i been successful, but i believe this is what the thread is about.
Hey, thank you for trying to donate and sorry it was more difficult than it should be. I think even writing about the effort that you put into it helps. <3
