Hi,
As you all know, SFC is launching a big fundraiser on Monday. As we heavily rely on SFC I think we should consider making a donation to show our support. They are currently 81 annual supporters short of their minimum goal. Perhaps we could donate the equivalent of 5 annual subscription (5 x $120 = $600)? Donations before the end of January will be matched.

Note that many employers will match on donations to charities, so this is worth checking into as it’ll double the impact of your donation.
Currently 10% of Inkscape’s net income is provided to SFC, as is standard for all projects SFC manages.
Inkscape made a one-time donation to SFC as part of our Fiscal Services Agreement effort last year, in the amount of $1600 ($400 per year from 2009-2012), plus a retroactive payment of 10% for income received since 2012.
