Speaking about the Fund:it drive, the organizers state:
We’ve finished recording, and are on to the final part of the process – getting the album out to you people. So far everyone has given their time for free – the engineers, the musicians, and the recording studios. There are a few unavoidable costs with producing an album, such as CD printing and distribution, copyright licenses (most of the songs are covers), as well as small day to day costs. We’re asking for your help to raise this money so we can start giving money to the charity as soon as the album is released.
