The following script is a minimalist donation jar for use in clubs, on simulators or for a cause. This is different from the tipjar or the stripjar where an agent is the sole beneficiary of the accumulated tips. In this case, the jar can be set to a group in order to receive donations for the entire group.

This is the previous code of the tip-jar, now superseded by the ample donation jar.

• Create a donation jar primitive.
• Set the description to 0.
• Create a new script in the donation jar primitive.
• Copy and paste the code below into the script.
• Edit the GOAL = 30000 and set it to your goal in L$.
• Save the script.
