The Collab Lab is 100% volunteer-driven and *free* for participants. 
But it does cost money to run. Not a ton of money, but some.
If you can, please consider sponsoring us. Thank you!

We’re a 501(c)3 nonprofit, so donations are tax-deductible in the U.S. 
We make use of free/freemium tools as much as possible. E.g., we have a free nonprofit plan with @SlackHQ which is super incredibly helpful! We use the free level of @GitHub as well.

But there is other software that we’re using where we’d be way better off with paid accounts including @1Password & @Netlify. We also use @Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) for single-sign-on, calendaring, etc. and @Zoom_US for our many weekly calls.

So, yeah, it’s not a ton of money, but it adds up. We have a goal of getting to $256/month in sponsorships, which would cover 100% of our operating costs. 
We’re currently at $80/month, so almost a third of the way there!

If you’re not in a position to sponsor right now, no worries! If you value what we do, consider amplifying this thread so more people see it.
