Donations: How your support keeps the Bricoplan community alive

Hello to all DIY and home decor lovers. I'm Josep, the creator behind Bricoplan, and today I want to talk to you about something a little different but equally important to our community: donations. When I started Bricoplan, my goal was simple: to share my passion for DIY and help others transform their spaces.

Over time, thanks to you, I've built an incredible community of creative and enthusiastic people. But maintaining this space requires resources, and that's where donations come in.

Why are donations important to Bricoplan?

Imagine Bricoplan as a large community workshop. We need tools (in this case, technology), materials (quality content), and, of course, energy (time and dedication) to keep it running. Donations help us:

1. Keep the website updated and secureTechnology evolves rapidly, and we need to stay ahead of the curve to provide you with the best possible experience.
2. Create quality contentResearching, writing, and producing detailed tutorials takes time. Your contributions allow me to dedicate more time to creating useful and relevant content.
3. Expand our resourcesWith your support, I can invest in new tools and materials to create more complete and varied tutorials.
4. Keep the community free from intrusive advertising: I prefer to avoid cluttering the site with ads that might disrupt your experience.
5. Support charitable causes: A portion of the donations are donated to organizations such as:
   • UNICEF
   • Spanish Federation of Rare Diseases
   • Alzheimer's Foundation Spain
   • The TV3 Marathon

How you can contribute

I understand that not everyone can make monetary donations, and that's perfectly fine. There are many ways to support Bricoplan:

1. Financial donations:Even small amounts can make a big difference.
2. Share our content: Help us reach more people by sharing our articles on social media.
3. Buying on Amazon through Bricoplan: You are directly contributing to keeping the Bricoplan website and our community alive,

• 20% is invested in the creation of new content.
• 15% is donated to health-related charities.
• 5% reserves for unforeseen expenses.

Final words

When I started Bricoplan, I never imagined the impact it would have. Every day I'm amazed and moved by the projects they create, inspired by our community. Their stories, their achievements, their transformations... all of this is what makes every hour invested in this project worthwhile.

Donations aren't just about keeping a website running. They're about keeping a community alive, inspiring creativity, and empowering people to transform their spaces and, by extension, their lives.

Every time someone shares a completed project, every “thank you” we receive for a helpful tutorial, every photo of a transformed space… that's what motivates me to keep going. And with your support, whether it's through a donation, purchasing on Amazon through our website, sharing our content or simply being an active part of the community, we can continue to grow and help more people.

Thank you for being part of this adventure. Together, we're building much more than furniture or decorating spaces. We're building a community, sharing knowledge, and, most importantly, creating homes full of personality and love.

Ready to be part of this journey? Your support, big or small, makes a difference. Together, we can continue to inspire and empower more people in the wonderful world of DIY and decorating.
