Money Matters
The project welcomes donations, and all such donations are tax-deductible when made via our mentor organization, ReIMAGINE in San Francisco (a 501(c)3 org that has as a part of its mission the forming of innovative faith communities). Thanks to a generous grant made to cover ReIMAGINE’s work on our behalf, all donations will go entirely to our work.
Download the letter (PDF), originally sent to our mailing list, for information about our current vision for finances and the project. In brief, the current idea is that no member of the project is salaried, but unique work is worthy of pay. So, (to oversimplify it) anyone doing important community work can be reimbursed, and nobody gets paid just for being gifted (because everyone is gifted, and every gift is required in community).
To donate … one of two ways
1. Visit http://reimagine.org and find the “Donate using Just Give” button on the right. When you use Just Give, you can pay by credit card, and set up recurring donations if you want. Indicate Silicon Valley Project when prompted to ‘designate your donation’. (Within the Just Give interface, you will be able to see ReIMAGINE’s financials and non-profit status listed for reference.) A fee is collected by Just Give representing a small percentage of your gift.
2. Send a check to ReIMAGINE at P.O. Box 411601, San Francisco, CA 94141-1601 (with Silicon Valley Project in the memo line).
If you want more info, or if you have questions about the project, email us.
