January 2009

Happy New Year! Our final 2008 fundraising total was $282,481! We would like to thank everyone who made a donation in 2008. The FreeBSD community really came through for us.

Our 2009 fundraising goal is $300,000. We have already received over $1700 in donations this year. And we have listed these donors on our donor page.
