| <h2>A Good Cause</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| Apache OpenOffice, the leading open source office productivity software, is published by the non-profit <a href="https://www.apache.org">Apache Software Foundation</a> (ASF). Apache OpenOffice has been downloaded |
| <a href="https://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html">over 250 million times</a>, by users in <a href="https://www.openoffice.org/stats/countries.html">over 240 countries</a>. |
| Commercial alternatives to OpenOffice sell for 100 USD or more, and come without the legal right to make copies and share the software.</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Apache OpenOffice is only one of <a href="https://projects.apache.org/projects.html?name">many open source projects</a> that are part of the Apache Software Foundation. The ASF comprises over 350 open source |
| projects, over 620 active members, over 5,500 committers and countless contributors and users. We are responsible for millions of lines of code and the 35+ servers which make up our |
| infrastructure.</p> |
| |
| <p><strong>We invite you to donate to the Apache Software Foundation, to support Apache OpenOffice as well as the many other projects at Apache.</strong> |
| Your contribution shows your support for our mission and help sustain a vibrant organization. Your contribution also shows your support for Open Source |
| and provides you the opportunity to "give back" to the community.</p> |
| |
| <h2>How we use Donations</h2> |
| |
| <p>The Apache Software Foundation provides the technical infrastructure for the projects — the mailing lists, code repositories, bug tracking systems, etc. We have the normal |
| business operating expenses which go with any organization. These include: Bandwidth costs, Servers and hardware, Legal and Accounting, Normal office expenses, Marketing and PR, |
| Sub-contractors to "fill in the holes" for administrative and secretarial duties.</p> |
| |
| <p>As a public charity our budget is transparent and spending is documented in our <a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/board/calendar.html">Board minutes</a></p> |
