Contributing to Lazarus
The Lazarus project is run by volunteers. They do not ask money for using Lazarus. There are many ways to contribute to Lazarus.
Contribute money
From time to time people ask if they can contribute financially to Lazarus. One of the possibilities is to offer a bounty. The Lazarus team also has a PayPal account that you can use to donate money. To minimize overhead (there is no foundation), the PayPal account is set on the name of one of the Lazarus team members, Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho. The current PayPal fees are $0.30 + 3,9%.
Goals
The Lazarus team uses your donations to help development and spread the word of Lazarus, for example by buying servers and creating material for conferences.
Planned expenditures
- Replacement of the hardware of the server that hosts this wiki, the Lazarus snapshots and the FPC FTP server and mailing lists.
