[sudo-discuss] Proposal: Request for sudo room financial alleviation

Greetings, Sudo Room is having some snafus with our bank, so we're currently unable to pay our shared utilities bill. We have been paying for the Omni's internet, totalling $135.93 to Sonic.net each month. For July-February, this totals $1087.44. Our current utilities bill is $255.35. Deducting our current bill from the total, this amounts to a standing debt of $832.09. While we would like to support the Omni by covering this, we are currently in a very tenuous financial position and may need to dip into this reserve. Is this amenable to the finance committee? We are planning a fundraising event, and several sudoers continue to work hard on booking and coordinating the rental of our common spaces (Omni made roughly $1000 from events this weekend). Gratitude to whoever paid a significant portion of this bill ($135) last week. Donations are hugely appreciated and really needed right now! If any sudoers would like to give one-time direct donations, follow the link on our invoices that are sent out monthly. They can be paid by any card.
