Continuing Mission:Libre's work depends on your support.
Mission:Libre's yearly budget is much less than €100,000. This covers:
- A salary for one person;
- Hosting for Mission:Libre's websites and online services;
- Other expenses typical of small businesses: filing fees, stationery, levies, insurance, etc.
If you think Mission:Libre has as much to offer free software as I do, please, consider making a donation.
About Mission:Libre Limited
Mission:Libre's funds are held by Mission:Libre Limited, a New Zealand registered company.
Mission:Libre Limited is entirely not-for-profit, but it is not a registered charity.
Mission:Libre is unlikely to be eligible for charitable status in New Zealand. New Zealand charities are required to do most of their work within the country. This is incompatible with Mission:Libre's goals: free software is for everyone!
Accountability
It's important to me you know I'm using Mission:Libre's funds appropriately. Each year, I'll be publishing a report telling you exactly what Mission:Libre achieved and what was spent.
I welcome tough questions. I'm always happy to chat over e-mail at carmen@missionlibre.org
