GNU Guix on Open Collective
Published on September 24, 2025 by Steve George

We've joined the Open Collective platform to make it easy for anyone to support the GNU Guix project. GNU Guix is a volunteer project that's developed and funded by our users.

Both the Free Software Foundation and Guix Foundation are non-profit organisations that support the development of Guix by holding assets on behalf of the project. Both accept donations:

  1. Donations through Open Collective are managed by the Guix Foundation
  2. Donations can also be made to GNU Guix through the FSF

All donations are used to support the recurring development and infrastructure costs of GNU Guix.

Building and distributing thousands of packages means the project continuously needs build farms, development infrastructure and bandwidth. Your donations will be used to support the projects infrastructure and to promote the projects development, along with the community around it. Please consider helping out by donating a regular amount as this will contribute to sustaining the project.

The Guix Foundation is an entirely volunteer Association that's registered in France. Our members determine our focus and we work together collectively to support and promote GNU Guix. We welcome anyone with an interest in GNU Guix to become a member of Guix Foundation.

You can either donate as a supporter or become a full member and any support is really appreciated - thank-you!
