Current: 1950 SEK
Goal: 3000 SEK
The current total is from LAPettersson, Beverly, Linda and 6 anonymous donors.
__________
Those who've been here a while know what this is. It used to be an annual thing this time of year, started by the founder of the site, Flame. I haven't run a donation drive since May 2009, but feel that it's time to resurrect the tradition, since Amerikanska is really your site.
Amerikanska is a non-profit and ad-free site. All work on the site is done voluntarily.
However, hosting a website costs money.
Currently, it's 1500 SEK per year (the costs have not increased since I took over the running of Amerikanska 5 years ago). That includes costs for hosting the site and the domain.
If you're able, please help keep Amerikanska going with a donation to help cover these costs. All donations go to the cost of hosting only, no one is paid to maintain it, not even me. Only a maximum of 3000:- in donations will be accepted. In the event it happens to go over that, additional donations will be held to pay for the domain name and/or held for next year's costs.
Donations are voluntary, helping to keep the site both ad-free and free to use, which it has been since 2001.

To try to stem the ever increasing flow of SPAM on the site, we upgraded from PHPNuke 7.9 to 8.1 earlier in the evening. It went relatively well, with only one period of panic when we got a database error. That problem was quickly resolved and the site was back up in just a couple of hours. |

Amerikanska is a non-profit and ad-free site. All work on the site is done voluntarily.
However, hosting a website costs money.
Currently, it's 1200 SEK per year. The costs for hosting the site may be changing sometime this year, as we hope to move the site to our own webhost rather then pay for two separate hosting services. Upgrading our account to accomodate Amerikanska will cost a little extra, initially, but will lower the total cost by almost half of what it is right now, while upgrading the services. So, next year's drive will require less in donations!
If you're able to, please help keep Amerikanska going with a donation to help cover these costs. All donations go to the cost of hosting only, noone is paid to maintain it, not even myself. Only a maximum of 1200:- in donations will be accepted. In the event it happens to go over that, additional donations will be held to pay for the domain name and/or held for next year's costs.
