    Why am I just now seeing this?! - Edit: I don't want the VPS but I did want to donate.

    I should also list down all people who donated :) In fact there's at least 4 users who did that already, really happy to see people from different part of the world also contributed to their local charity.

    For international charity I usually donate to the ones listed in the thread (Wikipedia / Web Archive)

    Donated - see OGF! :)

    Edit: it's charity - to consider OGF is unfair - I've donated again to another UK charity for @FAT32:

    Can't match 100% given previous donations and commitments, but donated £5 to similar charity:

    @FAT32 - how many are there? Can people go lower than 5? Maybe people feel ashamed of going lower. :smiley:

    This offer should have been gone by now.

    Absolutely fine to go lower than 5 :) Still got more than half of the quota available :smiley:

    @default lower then £|$|€ is fine poorer nations. But why not pay £|$|€ 5 for annual VPS. Maybe it won’t last, but maybe the next annual deal posted won’t.

    Great. I'm using one of his projects which he is maintaining for a while and thought this is the best time to support him. Should I send you my email in your inbox?

    Great job by @FAT32 and many of you. I think 7$ is way better than any FREE VPS. Most LET members would rather pay to idle than get FREE VPS.

    Please do share the links from your countries where we can contribute further especially those who help the families due to pandemic or war or disaster. Every 7$ counts!

    I'd just like to plug HKI through GiveWell. They save a child per ~$1500 donated, and you can find donation matching by just searching GiveWell match donation. I've already donated $25, and I'll also match $10 for the next donator (who donates to any charity).

    We are now at 33 hours with a total amount of at least USD 312.43! (Combined with OGF)

    Thanks for all the contribution so far! I am happy to see that so many people are participating in this charity drive and we always welcome more :) Plenty of VPS still available!

    I already have a VPS with Boomer and i'm still evaluating. :) But...
    I couldn't resist, sometimes these things make me feel some kind of way, so I picked a few I like from the thread and donated.

    United Nations Children's Fund

    Electronic Frontier Foundation

    Internet Archive

    British Heart Foundation

    National Autistic Society

    GiveWell

    It seems people don't like to contribute to a good cause, and get a free VPS at the same time. I was wrong thinking this would finish in just a couple of hours with a low bar.

    Come on people, donate something, anything. This is LET, and such good offers should not go to waste.

    Sadly the donation will kind of died :( This is still the only way to get a boomer VPS if you don't have a CC though :)

    Heck if you don't have any money you can still do some charitable work if you can prove it and get a VPS

    Is donating to school / foundation count? They provide free education / boarding school for orphan. Most of their income is from donation.
