2 donations have come in + 3 more pledges...you guys are great!! I think we must have some angels among us!
I'll let you know when we get close to the goal.
Update: We're up to $729 so far! You guys are great!!!!
This is including my own donation from the commission from the sale we already got, as well as Carla's piggy bank stash which came from that sale also. Since I will have another commission to donate from this sale itself, if we get enough donations by next week, I will pitch in the balance and have the machine shipped, so that it is there waiting for her when she gets home in mid-Jan.
However, I would rather use that $$ to upgrade to a higher model, to increase the potential health benefits for Carla.
If we get enough to surpass the cost of the low-end model, I will upgrade the model only if the surplus is enough to upgrade at least to the better model, which has more wattage, which means more potent antioxidant and micro-clustering properties of the water, translating into better results.
If there is some surplus but not enough to upgrade, I will still donate my commission, in the form of replacement filters, or cash - whatever Carla prefers. I want to be clear that I am NOT profiting from this project! (I may profit from future sales later on down the road, but not from this project to get Carla her machine.)
If we get enough donations to pay for the low-end machine, AND 2 people buy machines for themselves, I would be able to upgrade her to the top-of-the-line model in 3 weeks. So, if you are considering getting a machine for yourself anyway, doing so would help far more than making a donation, because the sale of the machine would generate a commission which I would then donate.
Just wanted to let everyone know where we're at.
