SantaThing 2024 Donations

UPDATE! We are extending our SantaThing deadline, to give members a little more time to join in! Sign-ups will now close tomorrow, November 26th, at 12pm EST.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We're pleased to be kicking off the 2024 SantaThing Donation Thread!

But first, some rules. Members will be eligible for SantaThing donations if they meet the following two criteria:

- They must have been a member for at least two months

- They must have at least 50 books cataloged in their account.*

*Suggestions! If you are in a rut with this one and unsure how to get your book amount up try this! Add books to your wishlist or books you have read but do not own. As long as the overall count is over 50 then you are good to go! The former is not easy to get around, but it is fairly easy to add more books to one's account if you're not quite at the 50 book threshold yet. Should someone in this situation request a donation, mellymel171328 or katemcangus will contact them directly to encourage them to beef up their catalog first.

Please feel free to ask if you are in need of a donation! If you want to become a secret santa and give an anonymous donation please feel free to message mellymel171328 directly.

Hey All, LT has covered a few more donation entries, but we're still looking for donations for those who can't cover their entry fees this year. If you'd like to help, send a message to mellymel171328 and she'll walk you through the donation process.

I'm here whenever anyone needs to ask a question.:)

>41 hepzibah59: FYI: I emailed you your donation info since your messages aren't open.

Is this sign-up still open?

>51 thelittlematchgirl: It is! We close tomorrow at 12pm EST.

>51 thelittlematchgirl: need a donation?
