Don’t miss out on this once a year opportunity at TechSoup! Request up to your full allotment of valuable software, hardware, and online services from some of our most popular donors before your eligibility resets on June 30. On July 1, you’ll again become eligible to place requests. Note that any unused allotment from this fiscal year cannot be carried over.

To help you make the most of this opportunity, we’ve highlighted some of the donors whose programs are affected by the fiscal year end — to maximize your benefits, place a request before June 30 so that you can request again starting July 1. Or click this link to view all affected programs.

Keep in mind your organization is likely eligible to request from not just one but multiple donation programs. The deadline is June 30, though, so place your request today.

Important: Microsoft product requests are not affected by the June 30 deadline.

Supercharge Your Server with New Microsoft Windows Server 2008

Boost productivity in your organization with the newest version of Microsoft Windows Server. This popular operating system enables your network server to handle a variety of important roles: file server, print server, domain controller, Web server, and more.

This month, I am excited to announce that GiftWorks’ easy-to-use fundraising software is now available through TechSoup Stock.

This new program offers small nonprofits donated or discounted software to help you boost your fundraising efforts.

Start the new year off protected with two essential software donations from Symantec: Norton Internet Security 2008 and Backup Exec 11d for Windows Servers.

Finally, if you’ve been hoping for a new transceiver module for the holidays, pass this email on to your IT staff: the Cisco Gigabit Ethernet SFP Module has just been added to our popular Cisco donation program.
