Rebuilding the PSF Fundraiser Q4 2020 - Donate Today!
Hi fellow Pythonistas!
As some may have seen, the PSF announced that PyCon US 2021 https://pycon.blogspot.com/2020/12/announcing-pycon-us-2021.html will be a virtual experience.
PyCon US generates over 65% of the PSF’s revenue. With PyCon 2020 and 2021 happening virtually, the PSF may lose over one million USD of expected revenue for those two years.
Your support is more important now than ever! If you are able to, please consider donating!
