Dear [**NAME**],

I'm writing to thank you for your donation to the development of Open Source Ecology and the Global Village Construction Set. Your donation not only assists in moving our project forward financially, but can also help grow our networked community of supporters and collaborators. If you haven’t signed up for our newsletter yet, please do so---in them, you can find out about collaboration opportunities as well as the latest news.

We, in turn, promise to utilize your donation responsibly. Some details regarding these financials can be found via the main page of the wiki, and we plan to improve and expand upon our accounting and financial reporting setup in the coming months, with the goal of maximum transparency.

Once again, we sincerely appreciate your support and belief in our mission. With your help, we'll do our part to make the world a better place by enabling others with the means and methods needed to create low-cost, durable, life-supporting machinery and hardware.

Sincerely,

Marcin Jakubowski
