Pikes Peak Makerspace is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We can provide a receipt for any donations you make for your tax purposes.
Additionally, we will acknowledge your generosity on our (small but growing) social media platforms.
It's possible that we may have missed your donation in our list below. If that's the case, please contact us and we will be sure that you get the credit you deserve for helping out the Makerspace.
Donation Coordinator (Proposed new position)
In general, the Donation Coordinator will encourage, accept and recognize donations to Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM):
Define what donations we can/cannot use (e.g. no CRTs)
Stay familiar with what is on our Wish List
Stay in contact with donors that are "on the fence"
Meet and greet donors when they drop stuff off, if possible
Coordinate a tour of the space, or promote our Tour Video
Send/give tax receipts to those who want them
Coordinate pick up of donations if necessary
Sort/photograph donations
Post photos and descriptions here on Donations Received
Distribute items into appropriate areas with help of Area Captains
Store other items
Photograph items that go into service, post to our wiki
Rinse and repeat
(also watch Craigslist for free stuff?)
The Donation Coordinator will not be responsible for repairing items, or pursuing grants, but is welcome to help in these areas, of course!
A Work In Progress
We are actively combing our old records and still adding to all parts of this list, including the following:
MotoMinded -- Chris Vestal
TITAN ROBOTICS -- Clay and Maddie Guillory
Other current (and former) PPM members
Other generous donors in Colorado Springs and the surrounding area
Please contact us and we will be sure that you get the credit you deserve for helping out the Makerspace.
