We have three primary ways to you can donate, with different benefits. All three are through PayPal, though we do have alternative payment options.

Donate Through the Donation Manager for a Specific Cause

You can donate for a specific purpose, such as a new feature or paying the server bill, through our Donation Goal Page. This page lists any current fundraisers and how close they are to their goal. When you donate here, you can donate anonymously, and without Supporter Membership (unless requested). Donations will go towards the specific cause you donated to.

Donate Through Sending Directly To Our PayPal Account (Or Through a Monthly Micro-Subscription)

You can donate any time through sending PayPal funds to: support[@]writingforums(.)org. This is the easiest way, but if you'd like Supporter Membership or to donate to fund a specific purpose, please contact us or specify it in the Notes section of the PayPal payment. These donations won't register in our goals or award Supporter status unless specifically requested. You can also subscribe to donate $1, automatically, every month, by checking out with that option in your User Upgrades.

Help WF Raise Money by Purchasing Supporter Membership

You can purchase Supporter Membership, which gives you addition site features, through your Account Upgrades Page.

Supporter Membership isn't strictly a "donation," and is actually quite different, since you are buying additional features. However, Supporter Membership will always go to server funds if the server funds are needed. If server costs aren't immediately needed, they can go towards other things, such as new features or writing contests.
