Donations Disclaimers

Donations are donations. They become part of The Grey Tavern system. Any and all donations made to The Grey Tavern becomes the property of The Grey Tavern to purpose or repurpose as The Grey Tavern sees fit. 

With very few exceptions, donations outside of Orders cannot be purposed by the donator and the donator cannot and will not receive the object, idea, digital asset, or other donated thing, concept, or time back after the donation. Taking a donation back without permission is considered theft and The Grey Tavern can prosecute for such actions.

Lastly, to be able to purpose donations, see Order Rules.

  • Delivery of raw materials such as food components (i.e. flour), wood, or anything that can be used to build into something or create something out of.

It is most closely associated with the Order type for families: the Endless Order. As such, Community Assistance works to facilitate the goals and initiatives a family might choose to do in order to help The Grey Tavern.

Here's a list of things they can do:

  • Refer friends and other families to The Grey Tavern
  • Notify the Grey Tavern of community opportunities
  • Organize and run community opportunities
  • Have a Grey Tavern game night with friends and other families not currently associated with The Grey Tavern
  • Participate in any Volunteer Role Path opportunity (may not always have community assistance opportunities, but that doesn't mean families or individuals in the family can't participate in these. In fact, The Grey Tavern still encourages it!)
  • Submit and start projects of your own initiative and creation. (needs to be approved by The Grey Tavern to count as a donation)
  • Selecting a Contribution Path (subscription of fiscal support to The Grey Tavern)
  • If you have other ideas, please reach out to us!

Foods through Referral will be discussed more at a later date.
