HAPPY SEVENTH BIRTHDAY #SUPERNATURAL!!!!!! SEPTEMBER 13TH 2005 THE DAY IT ALL STARTED!!
The second donation of this campaign was mailed to AFSP this week. That wraps up the donations for Fandom Rocks!
I will be closing the Paypal account this week. I will wait another week or so to make sure the check has had time to clear before closing the bank account. The domain expires on June 14, 2010, but I think I will renew it for another year or so for posterity. :)
Amazon is being a pain trying to close the associates account there, but I will keep trying. Other than that, I think we're done. *nods*
One down, one to go. I stopped by the local office for the American Cancer Society and dropped off the check in memory of Kim Manners. In theory, the Supernatural office will get a post card to let them know. :)
It's not a pretty picture, but all I had was my phone. Excuse my horrible scribbles. :)
The dissolution papers made it to the state, so all that is left is filing them with the county. That will probably be another 10or10 or 10or25 fee, all of which I have paid out of my pocket.
I went to the bank to make sure of our final balance, which was 3,337.93USD.Iaddedanother3,337.93 USD. I added another 3,337.93USD.Iaddedanother12.07 of my money to bring it to an even 3350.00USD.∗∗Thismeanseachcharitywillreceive3350.00 USD. This means each charity will receive 3350.00USD.∗∗Thismeanseachcharitywillreceive1675.00 USD!
I am going to see if I can make the donations online, but if not the checks will go in the mail, and the last step for the accounts will be to close Paypal and the bank account (after the checks clear). I will also make a note with our donation to the American Cancer Society that it is in memory/honor of Kim Manners. Cool?
Thank you EVERYONE!
Prize packs were mailed out yesterday. Sorry for the delay. Now all that is left is finishing the signatures on the dissolution paperwork, donating, and closing remaining accounts. Thanks for being a part of Fandom Rocks!
FYI: When I closed the Cafe Press store an $11 balance remained. Since this is below what they will send out in a check their solution was:
1. Spend it on their site.
OR
2. Request a check which may have a $5 processing fee.
Since the second option is the only one that gets the money to our charities and it would cut the donation amount roughly in half, I am going to make an $11 donation myself and use the Cafe Press balance on something on the site as long as that sounds good to you all.
Thanks!
