This may just be me but this line on the winners page read as misleading: "Before you claim your Winner Goodies below, please celebrate your victory by making a small donation to cover the cost of this NaNoWriMo and our classroom-based Young Writers Program."

I understand you're saying that it'd be great if people would make a donation to help cover the cost of NaNo, but the way that's worded makes it sound like "before you claim your winner goodies you need to make a donation". I wonder how many people have made a donation feeling that they need to in order to claim their winner goodies, or how many haven't had their goodies because they can't make a donation and didn't realise it wasn't mandatory.

As I said, it may just be me, but it didn't seem to be worded very well and came across as more demanding and an obligation for all winners.

How about rewording it like this: "... please consider celebrating your victory by making a small donation ..."
