At this year's General Assembly in Zürich, Switzerland the decision was made to start a project, that has been in the planning phase for quite a while. Professional fundraising will finally become part of the TYPO3 project.
It is the plan to hire a full-time fundraiser for this project who will require a startup investment of 30.000 EUR, after which he/she will rely 100% on provisions from the funds raised. In order to come up with this investment we are appealing to all benefiters of TYPO3 to help us raise this initial amount.
Benefiters have two options to support this project. They can make a one-time donation to the Association and label it "Fundraising Project" or they can sign a credit agreement in which they commit to giving a credit to the project to be returned to the creditor on success of the project. Companies committing to at least a 1/10 portion of this initial investment will be mentioned on this site with logo and link and be mentioned in all press articles on this subject.
