Free Flickr Pro Accounts for Non Profit Organisations

KHS has been using the Flickr (photographic upload) platform since 2010, to make archival photographs and documents more "Accessible" to all.  Many images on this website are "stored" on the Flickr site. Clicking images will take you to the Flickr site, where it can be seen that images can be arranged into "sets" to show years or themes in an an easy to use organised fashion. Non Profit organisations that meet requirements can get almost free Flickr Pro accounts (allowing unlimited uploads).
