A Commercial Support Network
You Can Count On Me (YCCOM) is a professionally administered
network of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and private
individuals, created to overcome the
delays and oversights that
keep even civic minded people from supporting worthy
projects or
initiatives.  YCCOM members make an enforceable pledge to
provide their fellow network members a small increment of support
over the course of a year.  The required contributions are
deliberately small in recognition of the fact that to make the world a
better place . . .

    How Much Does It Cost To Join:

There is a $25.00 annual enrollment fee;

For individuals, $7.00 of that amount is the non-
refundable cost of network membership; the
remaining $18.00 is escrowed until you designate
a fellow network member to receive your
contribution and the corresponding amount(s) are
debited.  Also, twenty five cents ($0.25) gets
credited to your escrow account, each time you
refer someone who actually joins the network;

For NGOs, $10.00 of that amount is the non-
refundable cost of network membership; the
remaining $15.00 is escrowed until the
organization designates a fellow network
member to receive a contribution and the
corresponding amount(s) are debited.  Also,
twenty five cents ($0.25) gets credited to the
escrow account of corresponding NGOs, each
time one of their members join the network;

For a limited time, network membership fees will
not be debited for 90 days.  Individuals and NGOs
essentially get a year and three months of
membership for the price of one year!
    How Often Must Our Members Donate:

No more than four (4) times per year; at least
once per quarter [i.e. three consecutive (3)
months].
    How Often Can Support Be Requested:

No more than five (5) times per quarter [i.e. three
(3) consecutive months].

Members submit a request for support or donation
via our online submission form or email;

A bi-weekly update of support and donation
requests are emailed to our members on a
staggered basis [i.e. network members are
updated consecutively rather than simultaneously];

Network members decide who, what, if, and when
they support and/or donate, consistent with their
membership pledge;

The escrow accounts of appropriate network
members are debited and a check for all
accumulated donations is mailed to designated
donees on a monthly basis;

About once a month, network members report
their non-monetary support of fellow network
members via our online submission form or email.  
These simple reports are randomly audited for
accuracy;

Network members receive a quarterly report
reflecting their escrow balance and any
corresponding "Pledge Shortfall Adjustment
(PSA)";

Network members who fail to provide and timely
report their pledged level of support and/or
donations are debited one fourth (1/4th) of their
escrow funds at the time of their corresponding,
quarterly report.  These assessments are subject
to appeal.  PSA funds are escrowed and equally
distributed to the escrow accounts of all network
members bi-annually, less a ten percent (10%)
administration fee.
