So far this year’s PSF fundraising campaign has been a truly inspiring demonstration of the Python community’s generosity, strength, and solidarity. We set a special 🥧 themed goal of $314,159.26 (it’s the year of Python 3.14!), and with your support, we are already at 93% of that goal—WOW!! Thank you to every single person who has already donated: you have our deep gratitude, and we are committed to making every dollar count.

🚨 New target alert: If we hit our goal of $100Kπ- we are going to release a nice video AND we are going to set a new goal, as well as an additional super stretch goal. Can you chip in to get us there? We’re confident that with your contributions and support we can reach those new heights. Because Python is for everyone, thanks to you!
