From betsy at python.org Tue Sep 8 12:12:37 2020 From: betsy at python.org (Betsy Waliszewski) Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2020 09:12:37 -0700 Subject: [PSF-Community] PSF End-of-Year Fundraiser Message-ID: Hi all, We?re excited to announce that plans are underway for our end-of-the-year 2020 fundraising campaign launching on November 23rd and ending on December 31st! The theme this year is geared toward education. We'll be actively supporting Python educators by collaborating with authors, trainers, and education companies that offer their services all over the world. Participating companies offer one (or more) products or services during the time period of the campaign, with all or a portion (20-50%) of the proceeds being donated to the PSF. All participants agree to help promote the fundraiser during the length of the campaign. For those interested in working with us, we?ve created an application for participation. Through the application process, we hope to have products and services throughout the world. We look forward to working with the community to make this campaign a success! Best, Betsy -- Betsy Waliszewski *Pronouns: she/her/hers* Event Planner / Sponsorship Coordinator @ThePSF As a non-profit organization, the PSF depends on sponsorships and donations to support the Python community.

An awesome PyCon India keeping you at its epicentre! As we are releasing the talk and keynotes schedule, be sure to look out for the release of workshops and information about many more events in the coming days on Twitter and on our mailing list.
