This would require a change in the bylaws. Currently the only difference allowed between Volunteer Active members (who don't pay at all) and Contributing Active members is the entitlement to vote for the Contributing Member Representative in the next elections.
Isn't it possible to do with just a board member vote? It's not removing any benefits, just adding something like "those who contribute at least $60 get a free mug".
Sorry, but I don't understand this discussion. People will become a member because they want to support fantastic projects and/or because they want to be part of a great global movement. IMHO this is more than enough - no need to add a - in proportion to this - very poor free mug.
