We’re making our fundraising request earlier this year than in previous years. Last March, we asked for your help to defray the out-of-pocket costs of DigNittanyVolleyball and the DigNittanyVolleyball Forum, and by April 6, 2019, you had responded with great generosity, donating a total of $1200. So far during 2019, out-of-pocket costs have ended up being a bit more than I estimated. On a twelve-month basis, our expenses now total approximately $1,400, broken down as follows: Website Hosting fee (12 months) – $370; Proboards fee for hosting the DigNittany Forum – $370 (12 months); tech support annual fee – $620; anti-spam software – $40. Total fees — $1400. (In 2019, there also was a one-time tech support expense of $263, which I covered). We still have a balance of $265, so we’re only asking for a total of $1300, which would allow us to continue operating through the end of 2020 without ads or any subscription fees, with a slight cushion left over. We’re confident DigNittany viewers will respond with the same generosity you have shown in past seasons by clicking the following link, and going to the PayPal button near the bottom of that page, below, selecting your level of support, and click “Buy Now.” You can pay using PayPal, or with a credit card (without logging into PayPal). Here's the link: www.dignittanyvolleyball.com/fundraiser-for-dignittany-for-the-2020-season/Thanks again! Love, peace and volleyball. Nyline |

Yes, nyline I just went from superfan last year to air conditioner this year, what exactly does that mean. Oh by the way keep up the good work. Also Happy Thanksgiving to you and DigNittany nation, and can't forget our Ladies, may they go far. We are rooting for you.

Hi Nyline - just contributed. Hope you're nearing your target. The forum is my lifeline to everything that's going on over there at Penn State Volleyball so I really enjoy reading it and posting the occasional comment.
Assuming the team get past the two early matches, I'm really looking forward to the PSU v Pitt showdown. Very confident that PSU will win comfortably - Pitt have had too many easy matches recently whilst PSU will be match sharp after their big games against Wisconsin and Minnesota. Hopefully I'll be able to watch the Pitt match live in England (another late night!!).
Wish I could be there to shout...............#WeAre!!

Looks like we can watch both of the initial matches streaming on BTN+. It seems like we can get access through the gopsu website (there is a "watch" tab).

I've never been able to access any of the gopsu sites, but will try again later. |

I've been laying low and haven't done a new tally, but we're around $800. I'll post an update tomorrow. Thanks again. |

While I have not posted before, I do follow your site for information and for links. I really enjoy your content,t so I just sent $25 via PayPal to support your fund raising as a "Super Fan". This payment may show the name Christie, which is my wife's name. I am Ed, and was in fact a Cheerleader at Penn State before there were any women cheerleaders. Hence my handle of Cheerleader Ed. Great work on your part, and I hope that you will reach your goal for this year's donation.

Quick Update: We've reached $1135 through December 16th! Thanks so much to everyone -- only $185 to make our goal! Really, really, really appreciated. Our Slacker staff has offered to match the first $100 in contributions starting today, so we think the goal of $185 is within reach. If you guys contribute $100 more, with the Slacker Staff Match we'll be at $1335, and we'll be done!!! (Of course, the reliability of our Slacker Staff has legitimately been questioned in the past. But we think they're trustworthy in this instance.) You can move us closer to that $1300 goal by clicking the following link, and going to the PayPal button near the bottom of that page, below, selecting your level of support, and click “Buy Now.” You can pay using PayPal, or with a credit card (without logging into PayPal).
