MaxFun Fan Scholarships

We're an annual #MaxFunDrive project run by fans! We've provided 270+ memberships to fans who are unable to give for any reason. [email protected]

Exciting news from @MaxFunHQ! They are offering gift memberships to make it easy to buy a membership for a podcast buddy. They're also organizing OFFICIAL SCHOLARSHIPS for folks who can't afford to renew due to COVID. Thanks #MaxFunShips folks! We did something cool. #MaxFunDrive

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

Gift memberships are now available on our website! So you can give the gift of MaxFun this #MaxFunDrive!

We’ve also added the option to gift a membership to an anonymous MaxFunster who had to stop their membership due to COVID-19.

This was a really terrific highlight of a week with an already humbling amount of generosity ❤️

Just gifted a #MaxFunDrive gift membership because there’s been so many times in the last year when I’ve startled a stranger by laughing out loud at #jjgo on one of my stupid fucking walks and I want someone else to experience that joy

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

Thanks to the kind MaxFunsters who purchased them, we've officially given out $5 memberships to ALL 593 MaxFunsters on our list! The waiting list remains open, so you'd still like to purchase one, I'm sure we'll be able to match it up with someone soon! https://t.co/i0lxuJUzZH

[How You Dugan? @lauradugan]

I'm donating one $5-level @MaxFunHQ subscription. You want it? Reply! First gets it. #MaxFunDrive

[AlliRambles @AlliRambles]

All right, I upgraded kiddo’s membership, upgraded my membership, & gave a gift membership, so I have officially done all I can do for the #MaxFunDrive! I feel like nothing can ever repay the @McElroyFamily for what they put into the world ✨💚😭 grateful for @MaxFunHQ

It's the last day of #MaxFunDrive!

544 (WHAT.) memberships have been purchased by generous folks in the MaxFun community. And we've matched all of those up with MaxFunsters on our waiting list who wanted to support their favorite shows but couldn't afford it this year.

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

Well, now we only have 39. I just bought one because I keep reading absolutely heartwarming tweets & emails from people who've received these gift memberships, and I'm inspired by the extraordinarily kind messages from people who've given them. You are all just the best!❤️

[MaxFun Fan Scholarships @MaxFunShips]

@JesseThorn It's the best, right?! Thanks to you, Jesse and @MaxFunHQ, for taking on gift memberships! ❤

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

This is TRUE! You can purchase gift memberships for anonymous fans who aren't able to afford them! https://t.co/HQx8KAtdVG

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

If you'd like to add yourself to the waiting list to receive a membership that has been gifted, please can do so at: https://t.co/RleRors1rW

We'll be matching them throughout the Drive on a first-come, first-served basis. No guarantees, but we hope to match everyone!

Thanks!❤️

If you're in a good place financially and you'd like to help another MaxFunster who's having a tough year, you can buy one year's worth of a $5 membership for someone at:

Just check off the little box under "Recipient's details" pictured below.

Did you know that we have a way to pair:

Folks who really want to support their favorite MaxFun shows but can't afford it this year
WITH
Generous MaxFunsters who've bought $5 memberships for anonymous MaxFun fans?

Read this thread for details!

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

Thanks to super generous MaxFunsters like @gcantreach, we're able to match folks who can't afford memberships this year with memberships that have been gifted by others in the community.
If you'd like to buy a membership for an anonymous MaxFunster go to https://t.co/PqGzOSLS00

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

86 generous MaxFunsters have purchased a $5 membership for an anonymous fan who can't afford one right now.
And we've matched all 86 of those memberships!

We still have a BUNCH of folks on our waiting list, so if you want to make someone's day for $60: https://t.co/PqGzOSLS00
♥️

[Maximum Fun HQ @MaxFunHQ]

If you had to cancel your membership due to COVID (or your plans to join this year were altered because of it), you can request to be put on a list to possibly receive a $5/month gift membership from a fellow generous MaxFunster! Just email membership[at]maximumfun[dot]org please

[MaxFun Fan Scholarships @MaxFunShips]

Thanks again for all your love and support over the years! ❤

[MaxFun Fan Scholarships @MaxFunShips]

The Scholarship Committee has convened and decided that we are not able to run and manage @MaxFunShips during #MaxFunDrive this year.

[MaxFun Fan Scholarships @MaxFunShips]

We're open to the possibility of other volunteers taking over the project. Caution: it's the equivalent of 2-3 full-time jobs over the two weeks of MaxFun Drive.
