Help keep the “lights” on

venmo profile for @livablecville

As an all-volunteer advocacy group, we don’t pay rent anywhere or have an electric bill. Still, there are predictable expenses that our volunteers are paying out of their own pockets. Here’s how you can help cover those costs.

  • $69.00 nicely pays for 3 months of keeping our website up and running

  • $53.00 pays for 2 months of our mailing list and newsletter services

  • $26.31 is enough for 3 of the best looking union printed yard signs in town

  • $8.77 covers a single yard sign (and stake!)

  • Any amount helps cover food and beverages for our next meet up

SMALL PRINT: Livable Cville does not exist as a legal entity. Your contribution towards volunteer expenses earns karmic dividends but won’t save you money on your worldly income taxes.
