To: In Texas WP-ORG's Spring Fund Drive cranks up just as mesquites leaf out in bright green and bluebonnets paint the Hill Country roadsides a purplish blue. I love this time of year. And I also love fund drives. Each Spring and again in the Fall, through these messages, we ask, "Are we still valuable to you?" And for more than two decades, you have said, "Yes!" and funded WP-ORG for another six months. It really is a wonderful way to guide an organization and to keep us motivated to serve. WP-ORG is the underpinning that drives more flashy things West Point. Through conversations between classmates on WP-ORG listservs, the little wheels at WP-ORG bring the Long Gray Line closer together. Founders Day, reunions, golf tournaments, Christmas parties, Class pistol sales, and cadet shuttle tickets from West Point to the airport have a common link at WP-ORG in online registration and payment sites. For the last 25 years, eulogy pages at WP-ORG have quietly collected and preserved tributes to graduates who have left us. The Ring Recovery Project, and its work to recover and repatriate the lost rings of graduates, calls WP-ORG home. Parent clubs, societies, and classes build beautiful, high-functioning web presences using Wordpress sites hosted on WP-ORG's servers. The heartbeat of WP-ORG includes many volunteers from your classes, societies, and parent clubs who leverage WP-ORG to build community. We are grateful for their support and recognize that they bring WP-ORG to life with their service. As Warren mentioned in his Fund Drive 51 kickoff message, we have made steady progress in the transition from physical servers to the cloud. Once complete, WP-ORG will have greater flexibility to build upon these services and others to bring ever more value to the West Point community. Your continued support through Fund Drive 51 is invaluable and deeply appreciated. https://www.west-point.org/donate/ Check out how the Fund Drive is progressing: https://secure.west-point.org/donate/report/ Thank you, and Happy Spring!
