Funding

This crowd funding campaign has the following objectives:

• Fund the costs associated with running the Ubuntu MATE and MATE Desktop projects.
  • These include domain name registrations and service charges for things like the content delivery network, web application firewall and transactional email services used by the forums.
• Fund the development of Ubuntu MATE and MATE Desktop via financial rewards for contributors to either project.
• Help subsidise the travel expenses of team members to represent Ubuntu MATE and MATE Desktop at FLOSS conferences.
• Support other Open Source projects that Ubuntu MATE depends upon.

We have set up a number of payment options that should hopefully suit everyone. Go on, be brilliant, help grow our community.

Leadership Change

Due to pending leadership changes of the project, we’ve temporarily removed our funding options.

If you were previously a patreon member, future contributions have been cancelled. Previous donations will still help cover the costs associated to the project.
