MANY WAYS TO HELP
It’s possible to support us without even spending a penny. Below is a list that starts with the most helpful thing you can possibly do and includes free and easy ideas that keep the boat shop crankin’. Read on, and thanks!
The best way you can help support us at the moment is by becoming a patron of ours on Patreon. It’s like being a monthly donor for public radio—and it supports us in exactly the same way. We can confidently make purchasing decisions about Arabella thanks to our Patreon supporters at every tier.
Plus, you’ll not only be able to be a part of a project you love, but also have the opportunity to get a gift of thanks in return. The financial benefit for us is at its maximum and most direct.
Not only does the purchase of a vacuum-insulated coffee cup, or locally printed t-shirt, or pen made with offcuts from Arabella help to support the project financially, but it also gets our name out into the world when you wear and use our gear. Be sure to take a picture of yourself with it and tag us in a post!
We have been generously supported throughout our project by TotalBoat. Shop their site using the link above when you buy products from them, and they’ll give 10% of that sale toward Arabella’s construction.
Every time we visit we are impressed by their tight knit crew of employees, which feels more like a family than a workforce, and by the sheer amount of knowledge they are able to impart and help with. They’ve also been sharing our videos in their newsletters and providing us with various products and hardware.
The button above is for sending us a one-time gift through Stripe or Paypal. It’s quick and easy, very direct, and allows us the freedom to allocate the funds wherever they’re needed most: whether that’s raw materials, parts, tools, or equipment repairs.
Here’s a whole ’nother way to really put your mark on Arabella’s future. We need tools, camera equipment, and boat parts and we’ve made a list. It’s also possible to put a bit of money toward big-ticket items—even a little goes a long way here. Click above to read more about this important effort.
