[Nfb-krafters-korner] idea for fundraising

[Lisamaria Martinez]

I am down with this idea.

In the nonprofit world, one can find many webinars online. Many are
free, but just as many are not free. A few places, will charge folks
for an annual membership which includes unlimited webinars plus access
to the archives and a few other things. And there are different levels
of memberships, for instance, get a quarterly membership and you have
the same priviliges but only for those months you were a
member--meaning, access to archives during those months.

I would not blink an eye to pay an extra fee on top of my $10 a year
to be a member if I can have access to archived classes. I especially
think this is a great idea because we are so spread across the world
and we have to battle with time zone differences. I would be happy to
pay, say, $25, on top of my membership fee to have access to archived
classes for the year.

Great idea.
