I welcome any donation directly and advertised from EDB to PGUS as it will help us achieve our goals. I look forward to them being partners in the success of the corporation.

If we follow the meritocracy model, it doesn't matter who is contributing, commercial or individual, it is the merits of those contributions that allow for the success. Sincerely, Joshua D. Drake
