FEBRUARY 3 UPDATE: We’re excited to announce that thanks to 179 of our readers, we’ve successfully hit our fundraiser goals! We expect that the site should be able to keep running ad-free for about two years.
TrekCore has always been a labor of love, and we can’t thank you enough for your support!
ORIGINAL POST:
We’re proud that TrekCore has been able to share our massive library of media content with the Star Trek fan community for nearly 20 years, and we’ve had a blast bringing you in-depth news coverage on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Star Trek: Picard, Star Trek: Discovery, Star Trek: Lower Decks, Star Trek: Prodigy, more television shows and movies that haven’t even arrived yet — and of course, our live reporting from conventions, premiere screenings, and other Star Trek events.
Our site has remained proudly ad-free for its entire history, and we’re working hard to keep it that way for as long as we can going forward… and as the Star Trek universe continues to expand, so has our coverage and readership. From the ever-growing television universe on Paramount+ to more new products and merchandise announcements each month, there’s still a long road ahead of us all!
While we know how to stretch a dollar, sharing these terabytes of Trek treasures isn’t cheap — but in the two years since our last fundraiser, our costs have nearly doubled, with site management expenses now topping $2500 per year. Our fundraising goal is to build at least two years of funding through your generous contributions.
We’re hoping that you’ll once again help us keep our site warping ahead (without those annoying ads) as we journey through the next generation of Trek adventures — your donations will allow us to keep expanding our heavily-frequented Trek screencap and image galleries, to keep producing our WeeklyTrek news podcast, and more.
If you love our site as much as we do, please donate today — big or small, any contribution helps to extend the life of this site and the resources we offer to Star Trek fans. Thank you as always for your ongoing support of our work!
