Get a Credit
Your name on the work. Your support inside the mission.
A credit is the oldest thank-you in film and publishing: your name, carried on the work itself, where everyone who watches or reads will see who helped make it happen. Supporters here can put their name in a book, on a film, on the record of the work the whole world checks, and in the other places credits live. Every credit also helps fund the work itself: the films, books, and music this house makes to help heal hurting people, rescue trafficking victims, and stand with families in need.
The top three
Of all the places a credit can live, these three carry the most weight.
Your name in the credits on IMDb, the record the industry itself reads, on TV shows, music videos, and films from this house.
Your name in a film's own credits, on screen, rolling with the people who made it, for as long as the film is watched.
Your name in the front of a published book, in print, on the page readers keep, in a work that outlives every platform.
Every place a credit can live
Your name carried on laynemcdonald.com, where the work is found first.
Your name in the credits of a music video from this house.
Your name on an album's own page, beside the songs your support helped release.
Your name on the site's supporters page, standing with the people who keep this work going.
The VIP supporter extras
A monthly VIP supporter email, written and sent by Layne personally, to the supporters who carry the work.
A VIP area inside the members section, with exclusive access meetings with Dr. Layne McDonald for supporters only.
Updates from inside the work while it is being made, for VIP eyes only.
Why this really matters
Credits are usually bought by people who could put their name anywhere. Here, the name carries twice: it honors the supporter, and it funds the mission. Every credit helps pay for the next film, the next book, and the next song, and this house exists to make work that helps heal hurting people, rescue trafficking victims, and help families in need and families who have lost children. Your name on the work is a true sentence: this exists, in part, because of you.
The supporter tiers
Support is monthly, and every tier is the whole supporter package: your credit at that level, plus the VIP extras (the monthly letter from Layne, the VIP Room, and behind-the-scenes updates).

How buying works
Supporter tiers are bought through this site's own checkout, which runs on Square, the same payment rail as the rest of the house. The buy path is built complete; its payment step opens the moment Square connects (that connection is Layne's sign-in sitting). Until then, the prices above are the real prices and nothing is charged. Members already have the door to the VIP room built into their members area: it opens for supporters the moment their support is recorded.

Join the Mission: 1,000 True Fans, One Family
This is not a newsletter, and you are not a subscriber. You are family. Around here it is friends, family, and supporters on a mission together, moving onward, and there is a place on the team with your name on it. Put your email in and you are in: when there is something worth your time, a new song, a new book, a film, a course opening its doors, Layne writes to this family himself. Real letters to real family. Your address is never sold, ever.
Joining is free, and it opens your free membership too: the books in the members reader, the full songs as the library connects, and the courses, all free.
