I gave $100. Even though I'm not here as much as I used to be, and so many good poets left, this place is still important to me. I can write whatever here and not be censored. I am tired of the constant STASI like reporting and censoring going on on Facebook and Reddit. Hello Poetry represents free speech and we all respect each other here which is not the case on most social media.

I just got a new credit card so I can give again. I'd much prefer a monthly fee, but OK.  I may not be able to love as many poems as I have done, due to the cost for each heart, but I'll figure it out.
Will there be some sort of tally as to how many stars are left in our bundle to use.  I do want to know when a charge has gone onto my credit card. In the past, stripe charged every month even after I canceled.  I don't want to have that battle again. I offered several times to send a year's worth of fees in a certified check, to avoid using a credit card, but never got a reply from Eliot or stripe. So my fingers are crossed.

thank you for posting this as i would have missed all about it as i never look on the blog. Have bought a bundle and am excited to see some changes around here. personally i would like to see more poems trending - i&#8217;m sure we could all just read a little quicker and less hearts would get broke&#8230;lol&#8230;.

How much did you give?

Kindly request Eliot to simplify the ways we can contribute. We from India do not count our money in $ and a standard membership fee will suffice. We don't need suns and stars we just want to write here in peace...

Thank you for making me aware, my friend. I unfortunately do not have anything to give right now. I wish I did. &#129782;
