If a donation to the burns unit was to be done it would probably be better done as a separate donation drive. The thing with running a website is you always want to keep a surplus on hand as there will always be unexpected issues or necessary upgrades.

For example, at some point, we will need to move to Xenforo 2.1 as this version will stop getting official security fixes and 2.1 will have reached a stability/efficiency level where its on par with what we are running.

Or we currently have 1200 registered members and at its busiest, we currently hit around 70% resource usage. The attendances have been between 11k and 19k this season for league matches so with 1200 there is a significant untapped market just from match going fans so lets say we have a sudden influx of new members which can just randomly happen with forums then we may need further server upgrades

Or there is always a chance that some unknown exploit is discovered by hackers and they end up causing havoc not just here but across hundreds or thousands of xenforo sites. Depending whats done this can be time-consuming to identify and fix the exploit while getting everything restored to how it should be

Ofc there is a point where a surplus gets enough that you can cover most possible unexpected expenses and use a bit for something else but you certainly need a surplus

Plus we've 1200 members but around 3% are paid subscribers so a fair way off having a surplus just yet
