Donate to the xFamily.org Server Fund
xFamily.org collects and preserves information on the The Family cult. In order to make this information freely accessible, server and bandwidth costs are incurred.
Some of these costs are covered by the donation of hosting and server administration from Able2Know.com. However, in order to archive more documents and multimedia, xFamily.org requires additional resources of server space and bandwidth. Our goal is to comprehensively document "everything that is fit to print" about The Family.
If you would like to help us cover the costs of maintaining this website, please use the link below to donate through PayPal:

Our Goal
We currently have a buffer of 90 days thanks to all who have donated so far. This allows us to contract the services we need with a small buffer of funds to ensure that the services can be paid for and that we can maintain this website online.
At the time of this writing, $654.05 have been donated to the xFamily.org Server Fund. --Craven de Kere 03:10, 11 Oct 2005 (CDT)
xFamily.org will be taking over the server it currently resides on until December, when it is planned to move to a similarly configured server.

For the technically inclined, the target specifications for the server we need are as follows:
