(Shameless Horn-Tooting)
Last year, Tube City Online and Lightning Community Broadcasting provided continuous live coverage of the 50th International Village.
We intend to do it again this year. But last year, we paid all of the expenses out of our own pocket, and we can't afford to do that again.
Our main expenses so far this year are renting a high-speed wireless connection and purchasing new equipment (including two second-hand computers). We've spent $551 already, and we're not done yet.
. . .
If you can donate a few dollars, we will very gladly and graciously accept your money. Use the ChipIn button to donate securely using PayPal or a credit card.
Thank you to Nancy N., Jamie S., Barry G. and Rita P. for supporting us already, and thank you for reading Tube City Online.
P.S.: Last year's International Village coverage is available for download.
