<h1>Welcome</h1>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The Software Freedom Conservancy is an organization composed of Free
|
||
|
|
and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects. As a fiscal sponsor for FOSS
|
||
|
|
projects, the Conservancy provides member projects with free financial
|
||
|
|
and administrative services, but does not involve itself with
|
||
|
|
technological and artistic decisions.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>By joining the Conservancy, member FOSS projects obtain the benefits of
|
||
|
|
a formal legal structure while keeping themselves focused on software
|
||
|
|
development. These benefits include, most notably, the ability to collect
|
||
|
|
earmarked project donations and protection from personal liability for the
|
||
|
|
developers of the project. Another benefit of joining the Conservancy is
|
||
|
|
that projects can use it to hold assets, which are managed by the
|
||
|
|
Conservancy on behalf of and at the direction of the project. The
|
||
|
|
Conservancy is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization, so member projects can
|
||
|
|
receive tax-deductible donations to the extent allowed by law. To make a
|
||
|
|
donation to the Conservancy or to its member projects,
|
||
|
|
please <a href="/donate/">visit our donations page</a>.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>If you think your FOSS project might benefit from joining the
|
||
|
|
Conservancy, please <a href="/about/contact/">contact us</a>.</p>
