If you are reading this page, you have
probably figured out that our association does not charge dues, and you want to know how you can help. Thank you!
We do not now, never have, and hope to never charge mandatory dues to our alumni. Our goal is to provide
a means to keep our alumni members in contact with one another, maintain a database of members, organize alumni
association reunions, assist other alumni members in organizing gatherings, and assist alumni in locating lost alumni
and faculty of Incirlik schools.
We no longer have a free static IP address and the space we once utilized to call our virtual "Home of the Hodjas."
Therefore, I had no option other than to contract with a webhosting company and purchase webhosting space for the alumni
site so I can bring us back online. This is an annual expense. We also purchased (some time back) a domain name registration,
which also must be periodically renewed. We also must purchase office supplies (paper, ink cartridges, software, etc.) for the alumni association. There
are other expenses as well for us to maintain this site. There is a lot more that goes into maintaining this association than one
would think.
I would still prefer to not charge association dues, as many other alumni associations have had to start doing. Because
of the expenses associated with maintaining the site, I have opted to start asking for those who are able to start making
donations. I have added a link below for donations via Paypal. Donations can also be sent to me via snailmail in the form of
a check or money order. Hopefully, you have already visited our contributors page, and sent a heartfelt thank you to those listed.
I understand that not everyone is capable of making contributions. This is precisely why we do not charge mandatory dues. We
don't want any member of our Hodja Family excluded because they can't afford dues. Please...Please be sure to thank those who make
it possible for all of us to enjoy our alumni association.
Since the alumni association belongs to all of us, I welcome any suggestions that you would like to see to our site.
Any assistance that you can provide with the site is also welcome. Provided we have the unused space on our site, I will be happy to
make additions that you would like to see. Just please keep in mind that we no longer have unlimited space to work with, and any
space exceeding that what I have contracted will come at an additional cost to the association.
