The 1% Idea

A fellow on one of the Facebook groups came up with a interesting idea on how we may fund USARK's efforts to bring a lawsuit to fight the python ban.

It's really quite simple--if we give 1% of proceeds from reptile sales to USARK, it will all add up to quite a lot.

Given how much prices can change with simple haggling, 1% is nothing to most of us individually, but it could make a big difference, particularly when it's in addition to other regular donations.

I'm planning to implement this myself, immediately.

thats a great idea, if i had any snakes to sell, i'd do it

Great idea, also I was thinking it might be a big help for someone to make t-shirts... The 1%idea :)

OH! That's a great idea! I've dabbled in graphic design for some years now and would love to contribute a design for a t-shirt. All profits (minus the cost to make the shirts) would go to fight the ban. Sound fair?

Sounds very fair

I'm trying to put aside all of my tips at work. Usually I save tips in order to donate them to a worthy cause or my local shelter, somewhere that needs it. Right now, it'll go to USARK.

me and my friend are in. are we allowed to post this on the website? or would it be legally contentious mentioning USARK on our site?

That's a great idea, and if I had any snakes to sell I would donate 10%.

Sounds like a great idea.

If folks who aren't selling want to participate they could donate 1% of what they spend to buy snakes. I'm going to do that when I get my next one.
