Financial Statement

Introduction:  Although operating as a "not for profit" in financial terms, The Victory Horticultural Library is not currently a tax-exempt, non-profit corporation.  he resources necessary to create and manage a separate legal entity are more than the Victory Seed Company can bear at this time.  It should be additionally noted that the Victory Horticultural Portal is not chartered by any authority, has no constitution, bylaws or written structure.  We exist as a history and research effort.

The accounting below is simply a listing of costs associated with serving the Web Site and associated with the archive project such as postage, supplies, and acquisitions.  Currently, all labor is donated.  Furthermore, office equipment (other than specific network or storage hardware) is owned personally by Mike Dunton or the Victory Seed Company and used free of charge.  Therefore, it is not accounted for as an expense.

Donations:  Any donations, no matter how small, will be accounted for here and directly applied to the maintenance and improvement of this project.  If you would like to make a donation using a credit card, click here.  We do not have a separate bank account so please make checks or money orders payable to the Victory Seed Company and mail to:

Victory Horticultural Portal

PO Box 192
Molalla, Oregon  97038

Sponsors:  If you are a business interested in getting your name in front of a very targeted group of people, please consider using part of your marketing budget to support this work.  Contact us for more information.

5/19/05 Google AdSense Commission (Note:  For some undisclosed reason, Google cancelled our account and banned us from participating in the program.  All they would say was that our pages were creating invalid clicks.  No matter what I said or asked how to prevent it or correct the problem, the kept sending the same generic, boiler plate about not being able to disclose their methods.  Very frustrating.  I have personally boycotted Google.)
