<h2>Donations to the FSF Europe</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>There are as many
|
||
<a href="/help/letter-20041209.html">reasons</a> as ways for people to
|
||
support the <a href="/documents/whatwedo.html">work</a> and <a
|
||
href="/documents/whyweexist.html">goals</a> of the FSF Europe. The
|
||
most direct one is to help us as a volunteer by writing free software or
|
||
free documentation. We also need people to help us with other tasks like
|
||
manning tradeshow booths and such. If you are interested, you can take a
|
||
look at the "<a href="help.html">What needs to be done?</a>"
|
||
page.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Another crucial way of supporting the FSF Europe is by
|
||
donating money that will allow us to cover our expenses and pay
|
||
people to work on and for Free Software.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The FSF Europe is a Europe-wide organisation that seeks
|
||
official recognition by local authorities as a charity whenever
|
||
possible. Depending on local laws, this may allow deducing your
|
||
donation from taxes. Please refer to the list below for
|
||
details.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>Become a patron of the FSF Europe</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>The Free Software Foundation Europe wants to acknowledge its
|
||
supporters and contributors in a visible fashion. Therefore we
|
||
would like to ask you to send mail to <code><a
|
||
href="mailto:office@fsfeurope.org"><office@fsfeurope.org></a></code>
|
||
and let us know where to send the receipt and thank-you
|
||
letter. Also we'd like to list you on our "<a
|
||
href="thankgnus.html">Thank GNUs</a>" page. Even if you prefer to
|
||
remain anonymous, please let us know how to reach you, so we can
|
||
thank you privately.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you are interested in announcing your contribution
|
||
publicly, the FSF Europe also provides some
|
||
<a href="/about/graphics/sponsoring/sponsoring.en.html">sponsoring
|
||
buttons</a> for its donors.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you donate:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>EUR 10 every month <em>OR</em> EUR 120 in a year, you'll become a
|
||
<b>Supporter</b> of the FSF Europe.</li>
|
||
<li>EUR 50 every month <em>OR</em> EUR 600 in a year, you'll
|
||
become a <b>Contributor</b> of the FSF Europe.</li>
|
||
<li>EUR 100 every month <em>OR</em> EUR 1200 in a year, you'll
|
||
become a <b>Sustaining Contributor</b> of the FSF Europe.</li>
|
||
<li>EUR 500 every month <em>OR</em> EUR 6000 in a year, you'll
|
||
become a <b>Patron</b> of the FSF Europe.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>Monthly donors starting late in the year will get a
|
||
"(mm/yy-)" suffixed to their listing, monthly donors
|
||
stopping early in the year get a "(-mm/yy)."
|
||
Late-starting, early-stopping donors are suffixed with a
|
||
"(mm/yy-mm/yy)."</p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>How to donate</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>The FSF Europe is still growing and there may not yet be a
|
||
local bank account that is capable of accepting tax-deductable
|
||
donations even if your local laws allow for them. In this case
|
||
you can donate to the central bank account (see below) or contact
|
||
<a href="mailto:office@fsfeurope.org">our office</a> for

||

||

|
||
or in <a href="http://fsf.org.in">India</a>.</p>

||
