    Some funding would be great actually. This meeting started last year
    and we ran in the hole about $450 dollars. We received a free
    facility from the University but we have some parking and food
    requirements. I'm charging (or asking) or a $10 donation to help -
    BUT - in the interest of "I want everyone here" some aren't paying
    and some are paying more. Last years total cost was ~$700 and I
    think I have at least $300 covered - so a $500 donation should
    completely cover it. There is a chance we may end up in the black so
    that would go to making this self sufficient for next year.<br>
    <br>
    If that's possible - if not it's all good. <br>
