COLLABORATIVE GIFTING IS PURELY TRUST BASED.

OUR REPUTATIONS HOLD IT IN PLACE

POINTS TO NOTE

YOU DETERMINE THE VALUE

Only you know how potentially valuable my expertise are to you so you make a plegde based on your perception of this value to you.

Once you receive the gift you will know for certain how valuable my gift was and you can appreciate the gift accordingly.

If the gift was worthless to you in the end, regardless of the value of the pledge then the value of your donation is zero.

THIS IS A PASSION PROJECT

It is simply a vehicle for me to share passion with the people who will appreciate it the most.

APPRECIATION FUELS EVERYTHING

By sharing your gifts with somneone who truly appreciates it you are appreciating yourself. It is inevitable that if you continue to share your gifts with people who appreciate them that you will be appreciated.

OUR WORD IS OUR BOND

When you make a pledge it is an expression of intent that is not legally binding, however not following through without valid justification impacts your reputation.

SELF REGULATING

If a pledge is made it does not have to be accepted and if a gift is shared it does not have to be appreciated. If a pledge is accepted the gift is given obligation free regardless of whether it is appreciated or not. If the gift is not appreciated however this will help determine whether future pledges are accepted or not.

Note: The right to refuse a pledge is always reserved as is the right to revocation, discretion, privacy and all other basic human rights.

I CAN REFUSE A PLEDGE REQUEST

The idea of Collaborative Gifting is not to give everything away…it is to find people who are truly grateful to receive what it is you are giving and want to express it.

WHAT IF I DON'T FOLLOW THROUGH WITH MY PLEDGE?

A pledge is an expression of intent only, not a guarantee. Sounding Board is a gift given obligation free.

WHAT IF SOUNDING BOARD IS NOT FOR ME?

If you don’t appreciate my gift you just send it back and tell me politely “It’s the thought that counts.” There is never an obligation to make a donation.
