Who ever decided to run your project is an autocrat/poor communicator, forcing their priorities on you. You have a right to make noise.

If you don’t donate, do they withhold services to you? Is this a one time donation? These devices need maintenance. If they didn’t tell me what we are purchasing and how the program will be run, I would hesitate to donate. Needs better organization and leadership.
We do not deny service to anyone - in fact, the Lifestyle homes are in Newell. Theee is no sticker on the window. Unless the home denies us access we will assist. The budget is for 5 years. Our hope is fundraising will keep up with expenses after that.
