I would like to support this; leaving the workshop in chaos in not something respectful and considerate people do, and leaving money lying around is just asking for trouble. If you're at the workshop helping out, it's up to you to take responsibility for getting people together to tidy up. You may have to disappoint people, make them stop working on a bike they wanted to fix, or turn people away, but it's better to do that than to show complete disregard for the workshop, the tools, and everyone who uses them.
I would like to ask, though; who sent this message? Whoever you are, don't you think it's disrespectful to send emails without signing them?
All the best,
Alex
