| Capacity Building Competition |
To date we have received a number of entries for DonorTec’s latest Capacity Building Competition. It is great to see the impact our donations program is having across the country but we are sure there are more of you who have yet to tell your story. For your chance to win a prize AND gain sought after exposure for your nonprofit all you need to do is submit a case study explaining how DonorTec has impacted your organisation and the benefits this may have had for the community your organisation serves. And don’t forget, the winning submission will be highlighted as a good news story for the next DonorTec publication – going out to over 30 000 email addresses!

| Windows Server 2008 May Be The Answer |
Although Microsoft has donated over 700 Windows Server products via DonorTec since the inception of the program two years ago, we believe this figure should be higher. This is why we have dedicated an article to DonorTec’s latest offering in the Windows Server Series – Windows Server 2008. We would like to let you know how the most advanced Windows Server operating system yet can open the realms of possibility for your nonprofit.
Windows Server 2008 is designed to power the next-generation of networks, applications, and web services. With Windows Server 2008 you can develop, deliver, and manage rich user experiences and applications, provide a highly secure network infrastructure, and increase technological efficiency and value within your organisation.
Windows Server 2008 builds on the success and strengths of its Windows Server predecessors while delivering valuable new functionality and powerful improvements to the base operating system. New web tools, virtualization technologies, security enhancements, and management utilities help save time, reduce costs, and provide a solid foundation for your information technology (IT) infrastructure.
It does not matter whether you have had little to no experience with this product. Learn how Windows Server 2008 can work for you: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/product-information.aspx

Common Misconceptions
How often can I order?
You may request a donation from every donor of which you are qualified once every year. There are no limitations on how many times you may order from our discount partners
Microsoft qualified organisations may request up to six titles, and up to 50 licenses per title per two-year period. Your second Microsoft order is not based on a calendar or financial year and may be placed on or after the anniversary of your initial order. Two years after your first Microsoft order has been placed your account will be reset so that you may again order up 6 titles and 50 licenses per title over the ensuing 2 year period.
Cisco donation requests may be placed once every financial year. The financial year begins 1 August
Bytes of Learning and Flickr donation requests may be placed once every financial year. The financial year begins 1 July
Our current Discount partners are My Booking Manager and NewsMaker
How can I update my organisations address details with DonorTec?
To update your organisation’s address we need an address clarification letter. This should be a signed letter from the CEO/Chairperson of your organisation on an official letterhead, and should include the following details:
- The address according to your ABN registration
- The current address for shipping (must be a physical street address as all parcels must be signed for at point of delivery)
- Any further information.
Please scan and email to DonorTec Registrations donations@donortec.com.au or fax to 08 8311 5213 and/or mail the original to DonorTec, GPO Box 11017, Adelaide SA 5001
Once this has been received by DonorTec, we can update your organisation’s record.
What do I do if I forget my organization’s username or password?
Click on the request new password link on the right of the screen. You will be asked to enter your registered email address or username. A new password will be emailed to you. If you do not know any of these details, then contact us at donations@donortec.com.au
How Do I Add my Nonprofit to DonorTec’s Supporters Page?
Some time ago DonorTec introduced a Supporters Page on our website http://www.donortec.com.au/supporters to reciprocate the good will many organisations have shown us since the inception of the DonorTec Program in 2007. We have had a number of organisations respond to our first call for supporters and would like to add more.
If your organisation actively promotes the DonorTec Program to your networks we would like to add your details to our page.
If you would like your organisation added to our supporters page we will require:
- Your organisation’s logo
- Your organisation’s website URL
- A short blurb on the purpose and activities of your organisation
- Information on how you have supported us – please include the type of media promotion (excluding word of mouth): eg e-publication, print newsletter, editorial, radio or television program, conference speaker, flyer, magazine article etc
- If you wish to promote DonorTec’s services further we have created specifically designed pages to help you do so at Help Us Promote
Please respond to our request at donations@donortec.com.au and we thank you for your continued support.
