= How to contribute to Tachanka! =

Unfortunately, all of the services provided from the Tachanka! servers cost money to run - to pay for the electricity, the bandwidth and new computer parts. We need to raise money now to help us pay for the coming year.

== How to donate == 

There are several ways that you can donate, depending on where you live.

=== If you live in North America. ===

 * Paypal: Use ''tachanka'' as the reference to [https://members.mayfirst.org/dues/ pay online direct] to our upstream provider, [http://mayfirst.org Mayfirst/Peoplelink].
 * Cheque: Make your cheque ''payable to Mayfirst'' and indicate that it is on behalf of Tachanka! The address is:[[BR]]
	!MayFirst/People Link[[BR]]
	PO Box 1814[[BR]]
	New York, NY 10159
        '''IMPORTANT:''' Please remember to indicate on your payment it is for '''Tachanka''', and also let us know by [wiki:PublicContact#ByEmail sending an email].
 * It is also possible for you to donate via [http://www.koumbit.org Koumbit] in Canada; please [wiki:PublicContact#ByEmail contact us by email] if you would like to discuss this further. 


=== If you live in Europe ===

 * Bank transfer: you can pay money for us direct into the '''Aktivix''' bank account. It is based in the UK and the currency is pounds sterling. Please contact us for information about how to do this.
 * Alternatively, you can pay in euros. Please [wiki:PublicContact#ByEmail contact us by email] indicating how much you would like to contribute and what country you are based in, and someone will respond to you with details of how to best transfer the money. 

Or, you may pay directly with paypal using the !Mayfirst/Peoplelink details above.

=== If you live elsewhere ===
   If you live somewhere else, you are still able to contribute! You may still be able to donate using one of the above methods, or it may be better to give your donation to a local project that is doing great work - in the spirit of mutual aid - please contact us if you do not know such a local project. Alternatively, you may be able to offer help with support, translations or other skills such as technical knowledge.
