Attention ALL Non Profit Organisations
(Almost) FREE Flickr Multi User Pro A/C's
[This Page is Now OBSOLETE as Flickr now has FREE Accounts for ALL with 2TB of Space]
On the Flickr main page (January 31st 2011) was an add from Flickr offering a
FREE Flickr "Pro" Account for
Non Profit Organisations, such as KHS, having "Deductible Gift Recipient" (DGR) status with the ATO.
KHS had just paid for a US$47.95 two year membership as this offer was unknown, but maybe your organisation can benefit.
[KHS Update November 2012 - KHS took up the five free Flickr Pro A/C offer last month and have managed to extend our current Pro A/C for another year until December 2013.]
Normally all free Flickr accounts are limited to a maximum 300MB/month and a maximum of
200 images. The Flickr "Pro" A/C's are for unlimited MB/month and unlimited image
numbers, as well as other benefits.
Details of this from
http://www.flickr.com/good/
which reveals a company called "DonorTec," who handle all Australian
Registrations for the Flickr program BUT also handle various Vendor Tech
Donations for about a 4% (of normal value?) Admin. Fee. ANY
organisation with Non Profit status with the ATO and meets the
requirements can BENEFIT. They will need to sign up with DonorTec to
partake in this offer.

On February 2nd [2010?] Flickr has also made an announcement that recognizes
