Here are several ways you can donate to me, Joshua “Joshie” Sullivan, to help me with many things and for many reasons, which would be greatly appreciated.
Why Should You Donate To Me?
In case you don’t know who I am, my name is Joshua “Joshie” Sullivan which I think is evident because this website that you are on is JoshuaBSullivan.com. To get the depth of information on who I am, please read the homepage of JoshuaBSullivan.com because that will tell you who I am or at least get a picture of who I am and what I do. But in a short version, I have multiple disabilities such as being Deaf, being in a wheelchair, having scoliosis (badly curved spine), and I am a little person (in medical terms, it is called Dwarf, but we dislike that word). Because of that, I cannot work anywhere that requires me to walk, hear, and whatnot. I have tried to apply for a job; believe me, I have attempted every business in this area, and no one would even bother to call me to inform me that I don’t get it, so that says a lot. For that, I have decided to have my businesses, so I started a few, and that is JoshiesWorld (news/media company), Joshie’s Photography (photography business), and Appalachia Crawlers Club (a club for ATV/SXS/Dirt bike riders in Appalachia mountain here in the Ky/Wv). Each of these businesses I run, along with their websites, the equipment, and whatnot, is COSTLY, which I pay for monthly. Thanks to advertisements, affiliate programs, and whatnot, they help me but only so little. So, I am looking for your support, and that is through donations. Even a dollar is greatly appreciated! Running websites run thousands of dollars on an annual basis. Several more thousands of dollars for gear for my photography business (I am a professional photographer) and on Appalachian Crawlers Club because, currently, all it has going is the website. Still, it is currently under construction because I need some funding to pay for a logo that runs a few hundred, then the platform, along with add-ons and whatnot, runs thousands of dollars. All three JoshiesWorld, Joshie’s Photography, and Appalachia Crawlers Club run on a server that costs several thousand a year. Then there are several hundreds of dollars for the domain names such as JoshiesWorld.com, JoshiesPhotography.com, AppalachianCrawlers.com, and this JoshuaBSullivan.com.
So that is already so many thousands of dollars monthly and annually, but that’s not enough. Because for example, I now need to get/upgrade my photography gear, get more equipment for my photography business, upgrade the server for all of the websites, get more add-ons for all of the websites, and have all of these businesses advertised to be able to grow but to grow it requires money which is unfortunate and more. For example, I currently use Nikon Z7 II ($2,500 – $3,000) as a good professional mirrorless camera for my photography business. Still, I need the like of Nikon Z 9, which runs over $5,500, and then I need more lenses for the camera, which costs between $1,000 to $18,000 (the long telephoto lenses are pricey but great for the like of sport, wild animals, etc.). Upgrading the server means faster, better, more storage, more ram, and whatnot for all of my business websites, including JoshiesWorld, which need additional thousands of dollars annually. Need more add-ons, to renew add-ons, to renew some of the things for all of the websites will run a few thousand dollars a year. That goes the same with the programs (such as combined Adobe Cloud programs, Microsoft 365 software, and other software that help me run websites, my photography business, and my management of the club) that need to renew, upgraded, and whatnot will also run some thousand dollars a year. Now you get a picture that already runs several thousands of dollars. Still, I haven’t even mentioned the need to upgrade my computer, laptop, etc., because a computer runs about $5,000-$8,000, the MacBook Pro runs $4,000-$6,000, and I’d like to have Mac Pro, but that’ll run me exact $52,348.00! For JoshiesWorld side, until manufacturers/companies start sending me their products for me to write reviews on, I need the fund to pay for some products to write reviews on them for readers like you to make a better decision on if you should get the product or not base on my review of the product.
I need just so much funding, but I never will get it through advertisements, affiliate programs, and whatnot. To set myself successful, I am to be able to work for a few companies THAT I own, which I founded over a decade ago because no one would hire a person with multiple disabilities. It is the reality! I run businesses, as I have for over a decade (since 2007, starting with JoshiesWorld), and I am running on fumes literally. The “why I need your donation” I’ve stated above is just the tip of the iceberg because there is so much more than that. From needing some money to pay for my bills, for food, for any personal things, for my labor, my time, and whatnot UNTIL I get all of the funding, I need to finally grow the businesses I run to where I can get enough of income that is more comfortable for me without having to worry or struggle. So, if you are willing to donate any amount, as I said, even a dollar, I would be so grateful for your support! All the websites I run will always be at no cost to you, but it is VERY costly to me, so of course, any help by donating is very appreciated!
