Some of you may have seen at the bottom of our page there is a "Community Chest" Icon/Link. This is set up by freeforums.com. Basically it is an area where if you would like, you can donate any amount to the FreeForums site. This will in the future help with website additions and modifications. This is purely voluntary, and none of this money goes to any of the Admin's or Moderators on this site.

From their website:
"We're always looking for ways to bring premium upgrades to our customers without making them front the money themselves. That was the thinking behind our new Community Chest. The Community Chest is a place where forum members can go to donate towards that forum. 80% of the money donated to your forum will be added to your Community Chest. The remaining 20% goes towards covering the expenses involved (ie. payment processing and development). Money donated can be used for all available upgrades (ad-removal, copyright-removal, attach space, domain names, etc) with the exception of advanced hosting. You can config your Community Chest's message and purchase upgrades from the "Community Chest" link in your admin panel.

We hope this enables your members to directly support your community and allow you to purchase additional upgrades for them. This has been enabled on all forums' footers by default and can also be accessed at yourforum.freeforums.org/chest.php.

So get emailing, posting, PMing, whatever it takes to rally your members!

-FreeForums.org Team"
