[Qgis-psc] Individual Sustaining members

[Alexandre Neto]

Hello all,

Recently, I found blender funding page:

https://fund.blender.org/

They have a single page for all funding. (there's no distinction between
donations and sustaining members)

It seems interesting that they give lots of focus and options to individual
contributors to donate periodically. They have values from 5 to 250 euros
per month for individual. Depending on the donation, it allows to put the
donor name, and company in the website. Once the subscription ends, the
names disappear. Instead of having a long donor names from people that
donated 5 euros 5 years ago (like me).

I think this could be a good way to gather small funds with regularity,
obviously it needs an infrastructure behind.

For corporates they seem to have a similar approach as us, but some extra
benefits. It seems that corporates can have a saying in some of the project
decisions and choice the grants. So, corporates could be also voting
members, I guess.

Maybe you already discussed it, but I wanted to share it anyway, since "we"
are doing a website renewal and an active fund raising.

Thanks,

Alexandre Neto
