<h1>About</h1>
<h1>About the Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc.</h1>
<p>The Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit
organization incorporated in New York. Conservancy is managed by
its <a href="/about/board/"> board of directors.</a></p>
its <a href="/about/board/">board of directors</a>, who appoint
its <a href="/about/officers/">officers</a> and hire
its <a href="/about/staff/">staff</a>.</p>
<p>We hold, protect and manage copyrights and trademarks for FLOSS
projects. Conservancy aims to act as long-term caretakers for our member
projects, ensuring that free software stays free.</p>
<p>Conservancy strives to be as transparent as possible, and makes
its <a href="/about/filings/">public filings available on its
website</a>. Bradley M. Kuhn, Conservancy's Executive
Director <a href="/blog/">blogs regularly</a> about Conservancy's
activities.</p>
<p>Conservancy frees FLOSS projects to concentrate on what they do best:
writing code. We do this by shouldering some of the administrative burden
that comes with running a FOSS project. Our fiscal sponsorship program
gives projects all the benefits of a not-for-profit structure without the
overhead of managing a corporation. We can help projects with
organizational structure, contributor's license agreements, financial
controls, accounting, fund-raising and more.</p>
<p>A <a href="/overview/">general overview</a> of Conservancy's
work can be found on this site, and <a href="/members/">detailed
information about the work that Conservancy does for its member
projects</a> is also available.</p>
<p>In addition to our relationship with individual projects, Conservancy
facilitates communication and coordination between FLOSS projects. We act
as a central store of knowledge and experience and help advance the goals
of both individual FOSS projects and the movement as a whole.</p>
<p>If you have general questions about Conservancy and its
work, <a href="/about/contact/">contact information</a> is available.
Conservancy is primarily supported by <a href="/donate">your charitable
donations</a>.</p>
<p>If we might be able to help your FLOSS project, email us
at <a href="mailto:conservancy@softwarefreedom.org">conservancy@softwarefreedom.org</a>.</p>
