Introducing Projects
Published on July 14, 2021 by Benjamin Nickolls

Manage funds within Collectives with Projects


Projects are a lightweight way for Collectives to manage budgets for initiatives independent of their parent Collectives:



Projects have many of the same features as Collectives: they have their own balances, contributions, and expenses. Projects have their own contribution tiers, goals, and updates. Projects are appropriate when you have:

- you want to collect funds for a specific initiative or idea
- you want to allocate part of an existing Collectives' budget to an effort
- you want to track spending on a subset of activities away from the main Collective

We've been quietly testing project Projects to manage budgets for The Digital Infrastructure Fund while Mautic have been using Projects to support specific initiatives. We'd love to hear what you think about this feature as we continue to iterate on it throughout the rest of the year. Please comment below with your feedback.

I've been wanting something like this. Only had events before which didn't make sense. I'd like to be able to move an event to a project but I don't think that's possible right now.

Hi Benjamin,

I am wondering about projects benefits compared to events.
So I understand it does not show on the collective.
Can the collective put admin different from de collective which would have a benefit for me ?

I suppose project is fine when it is meant for a short period or only special event.

To answer both the above questions, Projects are similar to Events in the sense that they are both a type of "Mini-Collective" within a main Collective, with its own separate budget, and it own contributions and expenses. You can freely move money between the main Collective and its Projects (or Events).

Right now, the admins of Events and Projects are the same as the parent Collective. In the future we hope to build the ability to specify different admins, but we haven't got there quite yet.

I can't see projects in my menu / profile page.    Is it something to do with the difference between fiscal host accounts and a collective account?   Or is it that I need to ask for the project feature to be added to my account?

Hey Nick, I can see that you've created an organization, not a collective. An organization is like a user account, it's for contributing as an organization to Collectives. If you'd like to start a collective please check out the docs at https://docs.opencollective.com/help/collectives/create-collective

At NumFOCUS we've been using this feature for the Google Season of Docs program and it's been working well.  This has allowed us to separate the receiving of funds and paying expenses to technical writers very easy so far.

Thanks for the information. I would like to know if we can raise funds for a small business with it? My friend is looking to developed an SAAS product based on the Edge AI technology for Auto industry. He's passionate and experienced person but lack the funds for research. Suggest some words for him.

 This update looks really useful! I’m managing a small game-related project myself, and having separate “Projects” will make organizing things much easier. I’ve been testing some ideas inspired by simple games like manok na pula, so this structure fits perfectly.
Thanks for the improvement!

 This update looks genuinely helpful! I manage a small mobile-game project myself, and having separate “Projects” makes budgeting and planning way easier. I’ve been organizing content and updates for things like bitlife mod apk, so this structure fits perfectly.
Thanks for rolling out this improvement!

 Really appreciate this update it actually solves a pain point I’ve run into before. I work on a small mobile-content project, and having clearer project separation really helps keep things organized. While managing sections for tools like moviesmod apk, this kind of structured setup would’ve saved a lot of time.
Glad to see this feature rolled out!

 This “Introducing Projects” feature is a great step for Open Collective — it gives Collectives a lightweight yet powerful way to manage separate budgets and fundraising for specific initiatives without needing entirely new Collectives Apkhillcr . Projects get their own contributions, balances, goals, and expense tracking while still being tied to the parent Collective, which makes organizing and reporting much cleaner and more transparent. Looking forward to seeing how the community uses this for events, campaigns, and niche efforts!

Really like how Projects add structure without complexity. Separating initiatives into their own budgets while keeping everything under one Collective improves anime salt transparency and makes it easier for contributors to support exactly what they care about. This feels like a very practical evolution of Open Collective’s model.

Appreciate you sharing this improvement

Great update the Projects feature looks really useful for organizing and managing focused initiatives within a community. Recently, I’ve been working on a small tool called Studocu pdf downloaderr aimed at helping students and researchers download and manage study documents more efficiently. Structuring it as a dedicated project with clear milestones and transparency would definitely make collaboration and progress tracking much easier.
