Get down with the cause

With issue two of le jolie rouge, this project is really hitting its stride. Together we've managed to spread the word and demand is up for not only issue two, but the first as well. So far, all printing and shipping costs have come out of our pockets which we are glad to do. However, our limited budgets affects the number of copies available. When we can't commandeer a copy machine, we can be found at the copy shop ponying up to put out the work of this collective. Being only able to print about 10-15 copies at a time, they are normally spoken for as soon as they're off the machine. Therefore, in order to expedite the copies available, we have created a donate button which will reside on this blog.

Let's make something perfectly clear, the zine will always be free. Always. We would never look to profit off the collective creative work we've accomplished. Printing a copy costs a little over $2. Shipping one is around $1.25 . Should we have access to more funds, this process will be sped up significantly. Your donations will be used strictly towards the costs of printing and shipping the zine. We take that policy very seriously. Lunch after the copy shop is not something we would ever attempt to justify using donations for. Copy shop, post office, paper. That's it. Your donation, in any amount, also guarantees that you will be in the first wave of mailings for that quarter's issue. So if you're able to send $1, $2, $5 or any amount we would be eternally grateful. If not, don't sweat it. We will continue to print and mail copies as our budget allows. Thank you for any donations you're able to afford.
