Greetings, members of the Apache community. As the end of the year
approaches, the fundraising committee would like to remind you that
you don't have to write code or documentation to contribute to the
Apache Software Foundation.
This is the time of year that many people look to donate money to
charity not only out of the goodness of their heart, but for the
purposes of tax deductions, which makes Tax Day just that much nicer
in the United States.
The Apache Software Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit,
and if you pay taxes in the United States, any money that you
contribute is tax deductible.
You can contribute via PayPal:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html#Paypal
Or by check:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html#SnailMail
For all the details, please see the contributing page, located here:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html
Many companies have "Matching Gift Programs" that will double or
triple your tax-deductible contributions. Check with your personnel
office to find out if your company offers this--they should be able to
provide you with a form that you can fill out and send in with your
contribution. If your employer wishes to donate to the ASF, please
have them contact us at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you have any questions or
comments.
Happy Holidays,
- The Apache Software Foundation Fundraising Committee
