Clicking on the donate icon on our home pages leads to a paypal page that states we are not allowed to receive money.

"This recipient is currently unable to receive money."

Everything is in place; as soon as we get Paypal on board things should be back to normal.  I would think in a day or two, but Joshua will have better information.

Thanks for solving this. I made a small donation and it went OK.

I want my money back, not! :)
