Remember, the total for the Japan fundraiser included the staff/community donation of $13,000. The user donations totaled around $7,000, and our traffic was a bit higher back then than it is now.Same here I think we as a community can do better than this.Donated.
Still blows my mind that the Japan thread raised so much money.
Nonetheless, appreciate all the assist from NT! Mabuhay kayong lahat!!!

We're still recovering from that last, nightmarish year on Yuku and the transition to the new host. The goals for this fundraiser were established with that in mind. To equal the output from the Japan fundraiser, everyone's going to need to work harder to raise awareness. The regulars donating alone won't do it. It'll take a total team effort.
The goals can be raised at any time. We did the same with the Japan fundraiser. Start too high, and users won't feel like their individual contributions even made a dent in the grand total.i think Meth set the goal too low. he should have raised it and would have encouraged more to donate to hit that limit with ease.We made our goal! #NT
Let's raise more than our Japan Fundraiser of $20,935!
thats just me. but regardless, proud that we all can come together and try and help others out.
I've raised the goal to $3,000 for now. We're still close to achieving that goal, but to do so in the next 24 hours would require us to pick up the pace.
We're adding the final badges tomorrow (LAST minute submissions will still be accepted here: http://niketalk.com/t/574471/calling-all-nt-graphic-designers
And I've got a site-wide notification ready to bring online tomorrow, in case users haven't checked the front page this week. It should help raise awareness among visitors coming in from search engines, too. Don't worry, the site-wide notification is dismissible and disappears automatically after a set number of user actions.
