Facebook might have over 800 million active users, but nothing brings all of Pennsauken together in one place.
PennsaukenAlumni.org is something special. It is like a library or a public park. It is a place we can all go to gather, to share, to live our experiences with others.
If everyone reading this donated $10, we would only have to fundraise for one day a year. But not everyone can or will donate. And that's fine. Each year just enough people decide to give.
This year, please consider making a donation of $5, $15, $25 or whatever you can to protect and sustain PennsaukenAlumni.org.
Please consider making a contribution (sorry, not tax deductible) to this web site to cover the annual hosting / storage costs (additional details below). These donations are not associated with the school, and are only for this web site.

Why is funding needed?
Alumni Channel is a host of online directories / online communities. Contributions from alumni keep the site going.
Expenses include:
-
Hosting costs (the web site and database sit on Amazon Web Services)
-
E-mail service (Jango SMTP) for sending e-mail blasts
-
Development costs (for new features)
-
Technical support (available to your site administrator Shellie, and for those having trouble logging in or accessing the site)
-
Server administration (backups, server upgrades, software patches and hotfixes)
The retail value of these services is between $600 and $900 per year. Ideally, the school district, an alumni association, or an education foundation with a vested interest in alumni, alumni data and communication with alumni would foot the bill for the site, but with the school having none of these (or none that are interested) contributions must come from alumni to pay the bills.
Our business leases the site on an annual basis, so the costs above are recurring for the past, present and future.
Welcome to our new online community. Membership is FREE and available exclusively to our alumni and friends!
