    <p>Hi All,</p>
    <p>After 4-5 of months discussion with stakeholders in a private
      repo (I was there for QGIS), last month GitHub announced that they
      now support sponsoring for organizations [1]. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Today I submitted QGIS.org to the waiting list. as soon as we'll
      be accepted I'll update the sponsoring button (that currently
      still only points to <a href="https://qgis.org/funding" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://qgis.org/funding</a>)
      to also allow "real" GH donations.</p>
    <p>From that moment we'll be able to track how much comes in
      directly from that channel.<br>
    </p>
    <p>please note that Sponsored organizations are not eligible for
      GitHub Sponsors Matching Fund [2] as this is for early-bird
      individual developers that subscribed before 1.1.2020 only.</p>
    <p>Ciao</p>
    <p>Marco<br>
    </p>
