You might consider adding something like this: "This meeting cost me $3.45, which I'm paying out of my own pocket. Want to donate that amount? Click the Paypal button below. Thanks! -Jeff"

ooo! I love it! How could I communicate that though? I don't track emails. I COULD send an sms afterwards, but I don't have a good way to figure out who was the originator of the conference call.

Maybe I could just put a side note on the page saying how much the average meeting costs and asking for donations there?

Do not do this. Just let it be free for now then build up traffic, call your most active users and see what type of businesses they are and ask them what else you could do to help.
