About corporate membership

The Django Software Foundation has a corporate membership program designed to give a voice to organizations interested in supporting and sponsoring Django’s continued development.

Corporate members contribute unrestricted funds that are used to fund DSF priorities, which include, but are not limited to: the Django Fellowship program, sponsoring Django Girls workshops, and contributing to Django conferences. More information on why investing in Django makes a difference and what corporate members receive here.

There are several levels of corporate membership: Sponsored Fellow, Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze. Memberships are renewed annually.

Why join?

Current members have decided to join the DSF for a variety of reasons, including:

• A desire to give back to the Django community.
• Wanting to provide financial support so that Django's developers can effectively focus their development efforts.
• A desire to help the DSF form a clear intellectual property story behind Django.
• Wanting to participate in membership discussions, Foundation member meetings, etc.
• A desire to help the DSF by serving on committees or the board.
• Tax-deductibility: the Django Software Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization. Membership dues are tax-deductible for US organizations; members outside of the United States should consult a tax advisor.
