Is ZDayZ a non-profit organization?
Technically we aren’t a non-profit organization, but we act as if we are one. None of the staff receive paychecks from the ZDayZ event. We donate our time because we believe in the event and how it brings all of the enthusiasts together whole-heartedly. “The staff generally goes out to eat once after the ZDayZ event as a “thank you” for all their thankless hard work, (however, we did not in 2009 due to being exhausted.) The staff does not receive any gas or travel reimbursements whatsoever, not to mention any pay. This is all volunteer work. Last year staff logged over 2,000 miles plus used 6 tanks of gas in May alone for ZDayZ. Not one cent went back into our pockets, this was part of our donation towards the event. The staff usually gets a few leftover shirts out of the event, but we wear them everywhere, so it is more advertisement than anything else.
