Brohoof Podcast Year One Fundraiser!

Edit:  As of now, the following are now the terms for any donation to our podcast. The dates below are invalid as there are no time restraints for donations, and the benchmark rewards have been removed since this isn't a specific fundraiser anymore. For any donations, refer to the list of individual rewards, and fill out any necessary information in the comments when you donate.


After talking about it for months, it's finally time to get this started. We decided to end our first year of podcasting with a fundraiser that will hopefully lead to bigger and better things for the show. We're basing the structure of the fundraiser around the same format that Kickstarter uses with their reward system. Depending on how much you donate, you will have a selection of rewards to choose from that will give you special recognition, or even limited creative control over the show. The full list of individual donation rewards can be found below.

Along with individual rewards, we will also have overall benchmark rewards for when we reach specific totals in donations. These are more in line with special events we'll host such as radio playslivestreams, and "Let's Plays", but we'll allow opportunities for community decisions. The list of benchmark rewards can be found below as well.

The fundraiser begins immediately and will last through the end of September, the first month we started podcasting.Our overall goal is a modest $300, but there will be benchmark rewards above that mark. Since the fundraiser is run through our paypal donate button which is always open, the individual rewads will be available even after the fundraiser is over, though the benchmark rewards will not. We would once again like to take this time to thank all of you for listening to our show and for your continued support. Brohoofs all around, and here's to hopefully another year on the air.
