We have been asked many times by you, the members, as to how you can contribute a bit towards the running costs of BirdForum. After thinking it over, we have decided on this voluntary support system. This is your opportunity to help BirdForum continue in it's goal of creating the most advanced and interactive online birding experience, and ensuring that the bandwidth and servers can be maintained, and that the site's features are here when you need them.
Being free remains a fundamental idea for BirdForum, however if you wish to make a voluntary contribution towards the upkeep of the site please select the amount you would like to donate and then click the support button. We cannot support donations lower than those given, as the processing cost would mean that we would actually lose money.
