Hi! 🤝 I'm Rob, an artist and humanist. The generosity of others enables me to produce work that serves values other than market forces. A variety of Payment Methods listed below include options for one-time & recurring donations. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for your encouragement!

Payment methods
| One-time | Recurring |

Zelle offers no fee, nearly instantaneous bank to bank transfers. You would most likely access Zelle within your own online banking. Contact me for my phone number that is used to confirm Zelle transfers.
Liberapay enables recurring donations with many advantages. They are nonprofit and take zero fees. (Payments are processed through Stripe or Paypal. Credit card transaction fees are applied.) Donors may remain anonymous if they wish. Liberapay does not hound creators and patrons with endless notifications, new features, and all the nonsense that make every single thing we do a hassle. It's simple, safe, secure, reliable funding that does its one job and doesn't interfere with our ability to do ours.
