My Goals for Patreon

Dear Patrons,**

First and foremost, thank you. Your continued support not only fuels my passion but also drives forward the important work that we undertake together. I believe in transparency, and it's essential for you to understand exactly how your contributions are making a difference. Here's a detailed account:

1. **Access to Fossil Localities:** One of the primary uses of your patronage is gaining access to various fossil localities. The vast majority of these crucial sites are situated on private properties. Your contributions help in procuring permissions and any associated fees to conduct research on these lands. This access is invaluable for our shared goal of uncovering and preserving prehistoric treasures.

2. **Tools & Power Equipment:** As we dig deeper into our fossil hunting adventures, the right tools are paramount. Your support ensures that we have the best tools and power equipment at our disposal, making our hunts efficient and fruitful.

3. **Content Creation:** While fossils are our primary interest, sharing our journey and findings is equally important. Currently, our equipment is largely restricted to fossil hunting tools. With your help, I aim to procure advanced filming and content creation tools. Additionally, I'm looking to secure permissions to film in various locations, which, surprisingly, can be quite an obstacle.

4. **Expanding Our Team:** As our Patreon community continues to grow, I am excited about the possibility of expanding our team. Many of you know and love Roy from our discord community. With enough support, my dream is to hire him full-time. Roy's expertise in video editing will allow us to produce high-quality educational content, furthering our shared mission of spreading knowledge. I hope to open the door for more employment opportunities as well.

5. **Future Endeavors:** As our community and support system grows, I'm always on the lookout for new avenues and opportunities. Be assured that your contributions will continuously be funneled into initiatives that align with our mutual passion for paleontology and education.

Reaching a goal of $3,000 a month will be transformative for our mission. It will ensure more consistent and quality content, deeper and wider research, and, most importantly, a community built on shared love and curiosity for the wonders of our Earth's past.

Once again, from the depths of my heart, thank you for being a part of this journey. Together, we're making a tangible difference in the world of paleontology and education.

Love,

Fossil Daddy
