The Pitch

GAP needs your help.

What started as a simple archiving project has grown into a full service family history blog. We are not complaining -- we love doing this! Unfortunately, the current capacity to gather and to disseminate family history is far exceeded by the volume of family history available.

Can you help produce GAP?

It need not take much time or effort.

• Search online and write about what you find.
• Transcribe stories from the family's written history.
• Develop an online family photo album.
• Attend to numerous other projects or dream up something new.

You may be thinking, "What's the pay?" Great news! GAP has a tax-friendly compensation structure that is guaranteed to not push you into a higher tax bracket.

Or, for the student readers, GAP can initiate an internship program where you get experience researching, developing projects, and publishing online, as well as a snazzy letter of recommendation detailing your hard work. Casual dress welcome!

That's the pitch. Contact GAP via the comments or otherwise if you can pitch in, too.

GAP knows your time is valuable, and so is family history. If it gets recorded on GAP, then great! If not, then life will still go on. Another site may pop up to lead the charge. Or, perhaps, our ancestors will reconstruct the history from whatever they find online and in dusty shoeboxes.
