TL;DR - We will not be accepting donations through Open Collective, starting in April 2026 (We received an extension). Please continue to support A11yTalks by moving your donation to GitHub Sponsors, Zeffy, or Benevity by April 1, 2026. See https://a11ytalks.com/donate for more info.
Your donations matter, and we appreciate your support!
With your support last year, we:
- produced 11 new talks.
- paid honorariums to 5 speakers, donated to Apraxia Kids at the request of one speaker, and 3 speakers donated their honorarium back to A11yTalks.
- recorded one talk with ASL interpretation.
- invested in better recording software to improve video production and marketing.
- printed and distributed A11yTalks stickers at conferences to spread awareness.
Our YouTube views are up 21% more than last year at 7.7k, and we’ve gained 12% more subscribers than last year at 3.24k.
Due to upcoming changes to the Open Collective platform, we are moving to other platforms to accept donations.
We hope you will continue to support A11yTalks by moving your donation to GitHub Sponsors, Zeffy, or Benevity before the end of the year. See https://a11ytalks.com/donate for more info.
If you move your donation, we will consider it a renewal of your support for our mission to advance digital accessibility through education, and we will send you more stickers as a big thank you! Just provide your address or follow the instructions to submit the A11yTalks Contributor Gift Request form.
