W3Z Donation Buttons

Hey everyone, we added some Donation Buttons to our site recently.

We try to keep W3Z as a free service for the most part but it does cost us money to run the station and site.

So we added a few Donation Buttons if you would like to contribute a few dollars it would be much appreciated.

Plus we are working on some other ideas to help with the costs to run the station as well.
