I've owed you guys this for some time:
Income: Total donations received (including my own contributions): $8125.74
Expenses:
As you can see, donations received equals expenses. My net personal contribution was $650.74, with $500 of that going to pay the settlement to SGCF. The next closest donation was $250.
Roughly 1/2 of your donation went to access groups. The other half went to attorney fees, Kat, and Paypal processing fees. One hundred sixty five people and organizations made donations, something that made me very grateful.
I personally donated $750.74 to the fund, not including my time and miscellaneous expenses including gas for trips to Big Timber and site visits. In addition I used my personal funds to post the $285 bond to the court (thus my total outlay was more than $1035.74). The $285 bond was refunded when I settled and I got a $100 tax credit for my Sweet Grass Community Foundation settlement so my net personal contribution (excluding gas, etc) was $650.74.
I've attached receipts of the donations I made to various access groups, SGCF, and the bond I posted that was refunded. If anyone wants to see the charges by Karl, Kat, and Paypal I'll have to go track down the invoices.
Thanks again everyone who donated. This experience has been both heartwarming because of the support and frustrating when people questioned my actions and how the money was spent.
