Salvage Fundraiser
Salvage magazine is undertaking a modest relaunch, beginning with a Patreon campaign to raise funds. Salvage is run by a very small team of (four) people, all of whom exchange their labour for payment elsewhere. Since its inception, Salvage has been squeezed into the hours between, and has necessarily suffered when the other demands on our time have encroached on Salvage’s already slim portion. Salvage requires more consistent attention and work if it is to appear more regularly. We are hugely proud of what we have done so far, but this year we want to do more, and for that, we will need resources. Quite apart from needing to fund some of the donated editorial and organisational labour that has hitherto kept Salvage going, there are other changes we are eager to make:
