Not what you think...

We’ve chosen to support The March of Dimes as our next donation target.

Their mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality. They carry out this mission through research, community services, education and advocacy to save babies’ lives. March of Dimes researchers, volunteers, educators, outreach workers and advocates work together to give all babies a fighting chance against the threats to their health: prematurity, birth defects, and low birthweight.

Please consider making a donation if you haven’t already.


Last time we donated $13.37 × 4 = $53.48 to Home for Women and Children of Shiprock, New Mexico.


Anybody up for tossing money at this charity? If so, let me know and I'll donate anything you guys want towards it from our hosting account. Remember that donations though DreamHost are quadrupled.

I'd be willing to donate another $10 or so. Do I send it to the hosting account again and you donate it from there?

This is just a confirmation email that we will be donating $20.00 on
behalf of you to The March of Dimes!

DreamHost will also be giving ANOTHER THREE TIMES $20.00 donation as a match!
Hey, that's FOUR TIMES as much!

Your donation will show up on your next hosting bill (Account #368109 "Alex's Account").
Note, if your bill isn't paid, the donation will not be made!

Thanks again so very much for helping out and being so charitable with your
hard-earned dineros! Good karma for you!

Thanks,
The Happy DreamHost Charity Matching Team!

So the idea is that we donate from our current hosting reserves, and members here donate to fill that gap?

The order is backwards, but more or less yes.

Is this still going on? Contact me on AIM so I can send you some money for this. I love doing charity work. Even if it's donating.

I wouldn't mind chipping in either, if this is still going on.

Getting people to donate is like asking for male volunteers for a new vasectomy procedure...

That being said, I get paid Friday and planned on donating then.

I would do it, but I am sooo broke right now. Still trying to play catch up after all that crap that happened last month.

Seeing how there's plenty for the site hosting, might as well. $3.30 deducted to donate? Wow. Thats 5.5% they take.

Current Balance: $197.59 [POSITIVE BALANCE]


This is just a confirmation email that we will be donating $60.00 on

DreamHost will also be giving ANOTHER THREE TIMES $60.00 donation as a match!
Hey, that's FOUR TIMES as much!

(I will usually fill in the fees from the reserve. It's not quite 5%, really just 3% + a base fee of like $0.50 or something.)


This is now $80 × 4 = $320 in total.
