ChoralWiki:Donations
The Choral Public Domain Library (CPDL) is entirely volunteer-driven. We have no paid staff. Our site is managed by volunteer staff and also active volunteer site users who help edit our site pages in wiki format and otherwise help out. Our primary expenses are generally hosting costs to make our website available to everybody, and filing/administrative costs to fulfill corporate obligations and copyright management duties in order to ensure that CPDL and scores generously provided by users will remain available in the long term.
Contributions to CPDL are appreciated. In September 2012 CPDL received the determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service of the U.S.A. recognizing our tax exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, as CPDL is now a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, donations are tax-deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. law.

and follow the instructions provided by PayPal. The transaction is entirely handled by PayPal under an encrypted connection, which ensures that nobody can intercept your name and credit card information. CPDL will have no visibility on your credit card information: we will only receive from PayPal a notification of the amount donated, and your name, email, and address as you entered them in the PayPal form. The PayPal system will automatically send an email to the email address you specified, documenting the reception of your donation by CPDL, which you can use as permitted by law.
