To donate to 'Footsteps of Sparrow Force Fund', a member may choose one of two methods.
First, a member who has an active and valid PayPal account may donate directly using the PayPal link provided at the bottom of these instructions. If you don't have a PayPal account, there is an option to donate with a standard debit or credit card such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express. To do that, you select the option to use PayPal below and you'll get redirected to the PayPal site. At that point, look under the Pay with my PayPal account option and instead, select the Pay with a debit or credit card option. Note: We have never used the credit card option ourselves, so we're unsure as to whether the user is assessed a service charge for doing so. Therefore, if that concerns you, make sure you check to see if either PayPal or the supported credit card companies do that before you complete your donation.
Second, a member may send a standard type of financial instrument such as a personal cheque, bank draft or money order using the regular postal service.
With the gracious assistance of Tom "tbonesmith" who resides in Australia and who has agreed to act as "Treasurer" of the fund, we have set up a "pony express" relay for donations such as this through Tom, who will then consolidate and forward them onto Ian Skennerton. So, for regular parcels or envelopes with donations etc., please follow this procedure.
Any donation over $50 will receive a complimentary copy of the production documentary on DVD when it's released. PayPal users should make sure they include their postal mailing address in the PayPal comments section of their PayPal order, to ensure any contributors over this amount using PayPal will receive their complimentary copy of the DVD.Send your personal check, bank draft or money order to:
Footsteps of Sparrow Force Fund
c/o Mr. Tom Smith
P.O. Box 454

Once Tom receives any donations sent via the regular postal service, he will notify us of the amount donated and your Milsurps.Com forum user name. At that time, we will add your user name to the public list of on-line donators, as well as provide you with unique public recognition on the site through a special "Sparrow Force Donator" banner, which will appear under your user name in on-line posts. If you choose to donate using PayPal, please note that all donations are in AUD (AustralianDollars) and PayPal will automatically handle currency conversions for you. Once you donate using PayPal, you will receive a PM (Private Message) on this site indicating your PayPal donation is being checked and processed. Once Tom confirms that PayPal has authorized your payment, you will receive a second PM indicating that fact and the the unique public recognition special "Sparrow Force Donator" banner will automatically appear under your user name in on-line posts.
