I'm happy to announce that you can now donate to SymPy with GitHub sponsors. You can sponsor SymPy by going to
https://github.com/sponsors/sympy or by clicking the "sponsor" button at the top of the SymPy GitHub page. GitHub sponsors allows you to add a recurring donation to SymPy. For one-time donations, use the donation page at https://www.sympy.org/en/donate.html. In both cases, 100% of the money goes directly to support SymPy (minus our NumFOCUS admin fee). And in both cases the donations go through NumFOCUS, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, and are tax deductible in the U.S. (to the extent provided by law and dependent on your particular tax situation). The advantage of GitHub sponsors is that you can set it up as a recurring donation, and you can add a badge to your GitHub profile to indicate your sponsorship. Donating to SymPy is not in any way required to use it or to participate in our community. SymPy will always remain free and open source. Sponsoring SymPy does not grant you any special privileges or rewards. However, we are able to use donated money to support SymPy. Here are some of the ways we have used donated funds: - Paying developers to do development or maintenance work on SymPy - Paying for developers to attend conferences where they can present about SymPy or meetup with other SymPy developers - Paying the costs for SymPy Live and SymPy Gamma Thank you to NumFOCUS for helping us set up GitHub sponsors, and thank you to anyone who has ever donated to SymPy.
