Overview
Open Source Transparency initiative is dedicated to making public code accessible, auditable, and trustworthy. This donation page supports ongoing development, hosting, and governance that keep code visible. By contributing, you join a community that values clarity, reproducibility, and long-term sustainability of open source software.
The project ensures that decisions, audits, and changes are documented in a way that anyone can inspect. Your support helps maintain a robust, verifiable ecosystem where contributors and users share responsibility for transparency and accountability.
Why Your Support Matters
In this initiative, sustained funding directly enables practical outcomes that benefit the wider ecosystem. Donations fund secure hosting, reliable build pipelines, and ongoing documentation improvements. They also enable community training sessions and governance reviews that keep participation open to newcomers and experienced contributors alike.
The project benefits from your generosity beyond code. When budgets are transparent and milestones are public, collaboration grows and trust deepens across diverse teams and regions. This work thrives when a global network of supporters believes in open, verifiable software as a shared public good.

How Donations Are Used
Open Source Transparency initiative allocates resources toward development and infrastructure, and governance and outreach. A portion funds review cycles, continuous integration, and secure hosting to keep projects online and open. Another portion supports transparency reports, third party audits, and accountability dashboards that are visible to donors and the public.
Additional investments go to multilingual documentation, accessibility improvements, and outreach to underrepresented communities. We publish quarterly progress updates and annual audits so supporters can see tangible progress and verify funds are used as promised.
