Hey there everyone! Hope you are all having a wonderful summer so far.

Here at SFFA we’ve been hard at work on our Lemmy project. It’s starting to grow and we are growing with it.

For about half a year now, we’ve been talking about the SFFA incorporating as a 501© entity, with the ability to fund initiatives, giveaways, book shares and more. We also have servers we need to keep running. To that end, we are opening up to donations to help meet these goals.

You don’t have to donate; we’re not begging for money. We’re just letting you know the opportunity exists and you’re welcome to check out our GoFundMe. Once we’ve met our GoFundMe goal we will be moving towards using OpenCollective permanently for donation handling. We will announce when this occurs.

We are in this for the long haul, and we will keep plodding away at it until these dreams become a reality. Thanks for sharing these dreams with us.

    I donated but I wish I knew how to help this project gain more momentum. Maybe we need to proselytize more.

      Well thank you for the support! We’ve reached out to a few SFF communities but a lot of them stayed on Reddit so until people want to help grow them here we’re a little stagnant. It takes a lot of work to content create for a community to try to grow it. We have quite a few folks subscribed to our communities but without people making posts engagement will be low.
