Funding the Website – How you can help
The MDC Website was developed and initially funded as a ‘project’ within the Cyril Malyon Memorial Fund; with the subsequent running costs being met from donations and a number of Standing Orders that were given by former members at the October 2017 Re-Union
Since that time the number of Standing Orders has increased and this is now the main way in which the website is being financed. The present annual income from this form of donation is now only some £50 short of the annual expenditure, with this deficit being met from the balance from the original fund raising. This will financial structure will secure the website until at l east the end of 2024 – after which further fund raising will be required to cover the above annual deficit.
The hope is now to increase the number of former members contributing in the above way so that we can fully meet the annual hosting, license and insurance/security costs which are currently around £200 per annum. In order to involve as many as possible, and to keep the individual costs at a very low level, the target for such financial support is for either a £12 Annual Standing Order or for a £1 Monthly Standing Order
As with the work in running the MDC & CMMF, no expenses or other costs are taken by those former members managing the website – so all the income from the Standing Orders goes directly to the above costs
If you would like to support the website in this way then please get in touch with Peter Boulton through the Website Contact Page
Alternatively, if you would prefer to help by just proving a single or occasional donation then this can similarly be arranged through Peter
