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.
There's nothing wrong with mugs. They're cheap advertising. If you have a visitor serve him coffee in the Wikipedia mug (preferably a left-handed mug) With a little luck he may ask about the logo on the mug. That will be your opportunity to talk about Wikipedia in the hopes of snaring another addict.
