Promoting free software takes effort, time and money. GNU/Linux Matters is actively looking for funds and support from individuals and companies.
What you or your company can do
- Sponsorship helps us directly cover our expenses and allows us to rely on a regular income. For example, a hundred dollars every quarter will cover roughly one fourth of our running costs.
- Commercial links give us incentives to promote FOSS-based products and services. Our website LinuxPreloaded.com is one such example.
- Hiring us part time, to work on our projects on behalf of your company, is also an excellent way of helping towards our sustainability.
What you obtain
- The satisfaction of funding the work of a non-profit organization that is well-headed and correctly administered.
- We send you an internal newsletter every quarter, so you can keep an inside overview of our activities.
- We have the pleasure to mention you in our sponsorship page and briefly mention you in our blog.
