Your donations at work [Q2 2015]

By lyz | Published: 2015-11-13

I’ve just published the most recent Community Donations Report highlighting where donations made to the Ubuntu community have been used by members of that community to promote and improve Ubuntu. In this report I’ve included links to write-ups detailing how those funds were put to use.

Over the past two years these donations have allowed Ubuntu Members to travel and speak at events, host local events, accelerate development and testing, and much more. Thank you all who have donated to this fund. You can help us do more, by donating to the fund and helping spread the word about it, both to potential donors and potential beneficiaries.
