Open Arts Forum exists only because of the dedication and support of its members. Beyond the daily energy exhibited by the amazing variety of literature, art, music, and video submitted, there is a cost to keep it open. It is not guaranteed that the site will continue to operate, as evidenced recently. However, it became apparent that OAF is an important resource for many.
With only one more day left in the year, the 2024 annual goal of member support to cover basic operating expenses has still not been met.
If you would like to know exactly what these costs are, please let us know, and we will be happy to provide a breakdown. Basically, the costs relate to the standard infrastructure associated with operating a website of this complexity (which is an LLC company). The owner or volunteer editors are not paid. In fact, the owner has covered shortfalls with his own money in almost every year since the site’s inception.
Please consider a small donation now to help support Open Arts Forum meet its 2024 operating goal and demonstrate your belief that OAF should continue to operate. It’s an easy process. Simply follow the link below to donate. Thanks to all who donated previously this year. We are hoping for new members who have not donated to do so, if able.
We realize everybody's financial situation is different. If you are not able to donate at this time, we understand - and we hope you will keep donating your creativity, which is worth just as much. Thank you all, and Happy New Year! Keep on keepin' on.
