That's the key, small donations to focused groups get spent on real action. Find the people doing the actual work and chip in.

I used to think location didn't matter much for my starter. Putting it on the fridge was a total game changer, it really woke up.

That's the problem with "marine grade" these days... it just means it costs three times as much. Sounds like it couldn't handle a puddle in a dirt parking lot.

Great, just what my estimates needed, more hidden costs.

Yeah, good luck with that... feels like trying to find a payphone these days.
