<h2 id="sfc">Git and The Software Freedom Conservancy</h2>

<p>Git is a member project of the <a href="http://sfconservancy.org/">Software
Freedom Conservancy</a>.  The SFC is a not-for-profit organization that
provides financial and administrative assistance to open source projects.

<h2 class="section-start">Donation</h2>

<p>The SFC accepts donations on git's behalf. In the past, project money has
typically gone to defraying travel costs for developers to come to our annual
<a href="https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitTogether">GitTogether</a>
mini-conference.  A portion of the money goes to the SFC to cover their
operating expenses. You can also donate <a
href="http://sfconservancy.org/donate">directly</a> to the Conservancy's
general fund.
