What happens here with moneyParticipation is free. A gift is voluntary and only afterwards
The whole programme — the 30 days, seasons of one quality, years of practice — is free for everyone: no fees, no deposits, no conditions. When a step is complete, the platform will offer, once, to make a gift — in deeds or in money. You can direct it to the project, to the founder or to your own leader, as you decide. You may give or not: it changes nothing in the practice, in access, or in how you are treated.
Right now there is nowhere to send a gift of money: gifts are not accepted until the non-profit is registered. What follows is for when it opens. You can help with deeds already — see the end of this page.
Three purposes — your choice
A gift can go to the project: the website and the platform, printing notebooks for libraries, rooms for meetings, registration and accounting of the non-profit. Or it can go to the founder or to your own leader, as thanks for their work. It is thanks afterwards, not a fee for taking part: circles, cards and the diary are equally free for everyone, whoever gave thanks. A leader does not see who thanked them: only the administrator sees names, and the open report shows numbers only. If anyone’s work is ever paid for out of the common fund, the board will decide it — openly and with a report.
Three rules of the gift
- The offer is made once and only after a completed step: after the 30 days, after the first season of one quality, after the first year of practice. Never before, and never as a condition of participation.
- Amounts are anonymous and never announced; a gift gives no status, no influence over the programme and no privileges inside the practice.
- We do not remind and we never ask twice. The “No, thank you” button closes the offer for that step: we will not ask about it again.
Everything through the non-profit, everything visible
Gifts will go to the account of the project’s non-profit organisation. The report of income and spending will open together with the acceptance of gifts — no names, numbers only. Rule of independence: no single donor gives more than a third of the annual budget.
How to give
International card, PayPal or cryptocurrency; in Russia, card or instant bank transfer. All methods open inside the participant account after a step is complete. While the non-profit is not registered, gifts are not accepted: the project holds no one else’s money until there is a legal entity and a public report.
Helping with deeds — already now
This is not a payment or a gift for taking part; it obliges you to nothing and gives you nothing inside the practice. Anyone can help — including someone who will never take part themselves.
- Offer a venue for an open circle: a library, a cultural centre, a loft.
- Proofread the English translation, or help translate the cards into Spanish, Hindi or your own language.
- Become an outside contact for circles: a person outside the programme whom a participant can write to if there is pressure in a circle or its rules are broken.
- Take on the practical side of a cohort — reminders, forms, the organisational chat — if you are not taking part in that cohort yourself.
