So, What’s The Deal With Patreon?

Thank you

Gaaang Gaaaang. Thanks for popping by the THIS PAST WEEKEND Patreon page. The goal of our Patreon has always been to find unique and entertaining ways to support others. In the first year of our Patreon (2017) the funds went to purchase cameras, audio equipment (we had to support ourselves first) and even to cover some studio rent. In the second year (2018) we started Single Mom’s Night Out, where in tour cities we treat a single mother and her guest, to a night out on the town; including a pre-show hang doing something fun, paying for the sitter, providing transportation to and from, and tickets to the show. As a child I wish someone would have taken my mother out for a nice evening of laughter, or a nice afternoon of go-karting or just for a chance to smile; so it is nice that we have the opportunity now to do that for other Moms. Thank you for helping make that happen.In the third year of our Patreon (2019) we created a game called GET THAT CASH; where we hide money in our hotel room for the cleaning lady/man (usually lady) to find. The more answers the cleaning woman gets to a series of questions, the more time they will have to search for hidden cash in the room. We know its just $$$, but it also breaks the monotony of cleaning rooms and lets them know that they are being thought of. Often times we don’t realize that people care, even when they do; That is the message. The cash is just a bonus.UPDATE: In late 2019 things go super busy with touring and podcasting; to the level where it became hard to take on spending time with single moms (and their guests) before the shows; whereas in 2018 we would be in a city for a few days at a comedy club; we were now showing up in a city the afternoon of the show, performing in a theater that night, and leaving the next morning to a new city. While this was a blessing work wise; it was hard to manage our Single Mom's Night Out or our Get That Cash like we wanted to.On March 27th of 2020 we decided to scale back the tiers of our Patreon while we gameplan. While we are GRATEFUL AS ALL GET OUT for your support of TPW and its visions, with the Covid-19 we dont feel great accepting money that may be better used closer to home. We will continue to send help to the list of amazing moms we have met, when we can. Please watch this video for a better update https://youtu.be/TcAe7Q1FCP0 , and read below for some of the long term goals we have for our Patreon down the line.Love you guys and see you soon. Thank you for all of your support.-TheoLong Term GoalsTo help single moms out financially around the holidaysTo help provide grants to get single moms back to schoolTo help Spanish speaking mothers have easier access to learn EnglishAnd our long term goal… to start a non profit arm that helps to build 12 step meeting rooms in different cities/towns across the country. With many Americans struggling with addiction, or having family members struggling with addiction; we feel as though this is a helping something that is bigger than ourselves. To think that laughter and fundraising could combine to provide environments for people to get well really feels cool. I mean WOW af.You may have noticed throughout this statement that the word “we” is mentioned. That’s bc I personally want to say that while I am sometimes the face of what goes on here, I entirely feel like a member of a team. So many cities and clubs ive performed in and the owners and wait staff will say “Wow Theo, the people that come to your shows are truly the nicest group of people we have come out all year.” No joke. Its happened so many times, that now I realize im just a small part of something multi-special. I hope to one day be able to personally thank all of you who support TPW. We are a neat group. We are doing our best. We dont always know what we are doing, but we are going to keep doing it til we do. Onward.Patreon is a great site thatin the creative process of the artists they love.
