VBOC Support Circle

 A critical part of our success will depend on the support of our pagan business owners.  We need to get our name and our cause out there, but all the publicity in the world won't get physical donations in the hands of VBOC and FOB Falcon.  Below we have listed the options and rewards for supporting our program, for both physical and online business'. 

For information on how to donate money to shipping costs or goods, visit our How To Donate page.

 Online Pagan stores have done much to bind our extended national Pagan community together.  If you have that power behind you, we hope you will consider hosting our button, and perhaps creating a donation space on your site.

 How online stores can help:

You can choose to simply host our button showing your support, or you can combine button hosting with a "donation corner".  This would be designed and placed by you somewher on your webpage, and would require that you give your customer the option to purchase items and designate them as donations for VBOC Support Circle.  A good example of this is the "note to seller" box available to customers when they purchase through an E-Bay Store.  Most independent websites can offer this note option to purchasing customers, and thats really all it takes.  You keep the money, and you can set up a pickup schedule for us to retrieve donated goods.  Business' that are too far away to make that practical, can simply charge normal shipping prices and ship designated donations to us rather than the purchasing customer.  Here is an excellent example of a donation corner page, posted on the website of our online "drop zone's", stregaslair.com :  http://www.stregaslair.com/index.cfm/fa/pages.main/pageID/7    

 Just copy and paste this button to your web page to begin hosting a donation program!

*Some people are having problems with copying and pasting this, so if you get a URL and no image, you will have to save the image to you computer and upload it to your site.

Our button is prelinked to the website, and must proceed the information you give in your donation corner. 

Ebay sellers have expressed concern that this format does not work for them, but no worries.  One of our earlier sponsors has conquered this.  You can view the Northern Visions ebay donation corner at http://stores.ebay.com/Northern-Visions

Rewards for this are increased sales, through extra product sold for donations.  And we will do anything we can to send business your way, including posting a link to your website on our Sponsor Links page, and a listing on our Items Needed & Requested page as an online "Drop Zone".

Contact Morrigan Oran at morriganoran@yahoo.com for more information, or to set up a pickup schedule if you are a local online business. 

Physical brick and mortar stores are the backbone of the Pagan community in any area, and provide much more than goods! They provide an opportunity for interaction and face to face networking that is impossible online.

How physical stores can help:

There are two ways physical stores can help, and the first is to request a drop box for requested goods, and a designation as a  "Drop Zone".  This is a small, discreet box decorated with our name and logo, that can be displayed at your discretion.  We will bring it to you, and pick up the goods whenever you request a pickup, or on a set schedule. 

The other option is to host a cash donation jar, a small jar decorated with our name and logo that can be displayed at your discretion.  We will arrange fund collections at your direction, whether daily or weekly.  All proceeds from these will be go directly to shipping costs for our care packages.

Rewards for this are increased sales, through extra product sold for donations.  And we will do anything we can to send business your way!

Contact Morrigan Oran at 1231-675-8274 or morriganoran@yahoo.com to host either a drop box or cash donation jar, or for more information.
