How about reducing it to this?
--
The success of evolt.org has raised its cost. This is a volunteer
community, nobody gets paid for doing this, yet we need to pay our bills.
To support evolt.org, ¨_make_a_donation_, it will help us stay strong
and healthy.

Hmm.. it seems a little *too* short, imo. That is, sort of abrupt. How
about this?

evolt.org's success has brought about costs which our volunteers are
unable to meet. None of the volunteers are paid for their work -- all
money is put back into evolt.org. Please support evolt.org.

Hey Jeff,
We on Marketing have edited the blurb next to the donation bar.
Here's the new text. Please update as soon as you can.
