SevenL Networks Donating to FreeBSD and Debian Organizations

Posted on April 25th, 2005


Toronto, Canada – Toronto, Canada, April 28 – In addition to continuing support of Gentoo Linux, SevenL Networks (website) announces it will be making monetary donations to FreeBSD (website) and Debian (website) Linux upon every FreeBSD or Debian Dedicated Server sale. “[Debian and FreeBSD] are doing great things and we wanted to find a way to not only thank those communities but help them in attaining their goals”. said Daniel Gallo, Founding Director of SevenL Networks. FreeBSD and Debian are non-profit, community-based organizations distributing their own unique flavors of Linux. Both rely heavily on hardware and monetary donations from their worldwide user-base not only to grow but to stay alive.

“It should be noted that SevenL could not exist if it wasn’t for the time and dedication put forth by many individuals around the world developing these Linux distributions; people working for the greater good. Now we’re doing our part too”, says Gallo.

Now, $50CAD ($40USD) from every Debian or FreeBSD dedicated server sale will go to helping the organizations that made it all possible.
