Integrated

The core goal of the Integrated Patreon page is pro-social action. At the moment, the pro-social actions primarily benefit me, Hunter, but this is not Hunter's Patreon page. DualDonate tiers, for example, directly benefit other people. If I were to recover or otherwise did not need support from the Integrated Patreon page, then the true goals of this page would be more obvious to everyone: <ol><li>Empower you, the patron, to be more pro-social.</li><li>Combine the strength of Integrated patrons to empower disenfranchised people: return the power that was stolen from them.</li></ol><h3>DualDonate</h3>DualDonate gives you the power to support good causes and Integrated at the same time. At least once a month, we give half of the DualDonate patronage to at least one charity, freeware developer, artist, educator, research project, or another recipient who is improving lives.

Free

One person, alone, cannot lift a car into the air. Twenty people, trying in succession, cannot lift the car either. Twenty people acting collectively, however, might succeed.

The power of collective action

For amounts above $2.99, the processing fees change. At $2.99, fees, as a percentage of the patronage, are the lowest.

To the limit

Why $5.01 instead of $5.00? Because the 1 cent signals that this is version one of this tier. Maybe that will be useful for organization or analysis.

Five alive

Half of DualDonate patronage supports others who are improving lives.

DualDonate 10

Perfect 10

DualDonate 20

60 is the smallest number divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The Babylonians recognized this usefulness and their legacy survives in our usage of 60 seconds and 60 minutes.

Flexibility

Are you an adrenaline junky? Do you like extreme sports? No matter how dangerous it is, a sport is voluntary, but homelessness is dangerous and involuntary. Each month, at least half of the patronage at this tier (after taxes and fees) directly benefits one or more homeless people.

Homelessness is extreme

360 is the smallest number divisible by 2 through 10, except 7. A circle has 360 degrees because angles can usually be expressed as a whole number instead of a fraction.

Full circle

Patreon limits tiers to $15,000, but nothing can limit my ambition.
