Updated for 2023:
For that past several years, I have been paying for TypeDrawers out-of-pocket (with donations from some amazing members). This costs me a little under $1,000 a year just to keep the doors open here.
This has led to the site languishing. I’d love to:
- Give the site a more mobile-friendly design.
- Add a section for members to contribute long form essays (a blog?) on various topics in which they are experts.
- Related to the last point, make the site not just a place for conversation but a compendium of type design knowledge.
- I’d also love to pay the moderation staff for their time.
As of now, I don’t have a budget for these sort of plans as I have no idea what it would cost to develop the site in to what I described above. Research would be required to find the right person/people to build it.
I’m considering opening up the door to sponsorships and, it seems based on a post on Mastodon, people are ok with that.
In the meantime, donations can be made through
Paypal.
Thank you all so much!

I’ll post all of that information next week; things have been extremely busy here so I haven’t had much time for anything.
Let me know if you'd like to talk more. Happy to help in any way I can.
