Who is paying for the development?

The app is free for everyone, so we rely on donations. Please donate at organicmaps.app/donate to support us!

Beloved institutional sponsors below have provided targeted grants to cover some infrastructure costs and fund development of new selected features:

	The Search & Fonts improvement project has been funded through NGI0 Entrust Fund. NGI0 Entrust Fund is established by the NLnet Foundation with financial support from the European Commission's Next Generation Internet programme, under the aegis of DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology under grant agreement No 101069594.
	Google backed 5 student's projects in the Google Summer of Code program during 2022 and 2023 programs. Noteworthy projects included Android Auto and Wikipedia Dump Extractor.
	Mythic Beasts ISP provides us two virtual servers with 400 TB/month of free bandwidth to host and serve maps downloads and updates.
	44+ Technologies is providing us with a free dedicated server worth around $12,000/year to serve maps across Vietnam & Southeast Asia.
	FUTO has awarded $1000 micro-grant to Organic Maps in February 2023.

The majority of all expenses have been funded by founders of the project since its inception. The project is far from achieving any sort of financial sustainability. The current level of voluntary donations falls significantly short of covering efforts needed to sustain the app. Any new developments of features are beyond the scope of possibility due to the absence of the necessary financial resources.

Please consider donating if you want to see this open-source project thriving, not dying. There are other ways how to support the project. No coding skills required.
