|
Like most other voluntary open source projects, OpenLP has no income and is entirely funded by the personal funds of
|
|
the developers. We have a number of fixed costs, like server hosting, domain names, and the like. If you'd like to
|
|
help us out, please consider donating to our cause.
|
|
|
|
There are three types of donations:
|
|
|
|
1. Once-off donations
|
|
2. Regular donations
|
|
3. Buy swag
|
|
|
|
Once-off Donations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Once-off donations are gratefully accepted. You can donate by going to `paypal.me/raoulsnyman`_. You don't
|
|
need a PayPal account.
|
|
|
|
Regular Donations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
While once-off donations are nice, regular donations are much more useful to us. They help to cover our month-to-month
|
|
costs. We use `Gratipay`_ for automated regular donations. Gratipay works on a weekly schedule, so calculate what you
|
|
want to donate on a monthly basis and basically divide it by 4. Gratipay works through PayPal, so all you need is a
|
|
PayPal account.
|
|
|
|
Set up your donation by clicking on the button below.

*Currently, after payment fees, we are receiving around US$ 9.00 per week.*

|
|
Buy Swag
|
|
^^^^^^^^
|
|
One other way you can help us financially is by buying stuff from our online store. There are T-shirts, cups, hats,
|
|
USB drives, and other things for sale, and all proceeds go to OpenLP.
|
|
|
|
The store has been set up on Zazzle: `OpenLP Merchandise Store`_
|
|
|
|
Regular Costs
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Here's a breakdown of our regular costs:
|
|
|
|
1. $20/month for a `VPS from Linode.com`_, which we'd like to upgrade to the next level, which will cost us $40/month.
|
|
2. $10/month for a `backup service`_, also from Linode.com.
|
|
3. $17/year for our main domain, `openlp.org`_. See `Gandi.net's pricing page`_ for information on domain name costs.
|
|
4. $35/year for our developer domain, `openlp.io`_.
|
|
|
|
This comes to roughly $8 per week. To be able to upgrade to the next level, we will need roughly $12.50 per week.
