How to contribute

Not sure if this is the best way to do this, and if there is a better way im all ears but until we can find a better solution paypal me at knyck2@mac.com and record your donation here for record keeping, Not sure how this affects tax deductible status, but I'm willing to provide the paperwork to Noisebridge trustees to make it official once we get it done.

Here are some vending machines I've been looking at:

Goals and Future

The goal of this project is to generate money to support noisebridge as well as give clarity and an obvious way to support to noisebridge to the "walk-in" crowd as well as the noisefolk.

Depending on the success of the soda machine it would be nice to have other premium vending machines that vend possibly healthy snacks, computer parts, arduinos etc.

Possible Issues

It is feared that any vending machine put in noisebridge will immediately get hacked. Not sure how excellent this would be.

How to deal with stock sodas not already inside the machine.
