Our current balance is around $6000 and the average monthly cost to keep us running is $250.

If you’d like to take a closer look at our finances, then you can do it here -> https://opencollective.com/beehaw-collective

All of that being said, is there another service that the Beehaw community could provide with the extra funds?

One example could be to establish a Nonprofit Corporation (501©(3)) to create a legally recognized nonprofit with a clear charitable mission: education, health services, housing, etc.

    It’s interesting how Beehaw has an emergency fund as most instances are living pay cheque to pay cheque. Hopefully our software and practices can improve to further reduce costs.

      the Beeple are very passionate about this particular server. I think other servers have a lot of folks that would be fine with jumping to a new server if they had to, but i cannot really speak to that.
