We launched our 2015 Membership Drive on October 13th. By the end of November, we increased overall membership by 4.75% and we saw an outpouring of support from people who spread the word and encouraged others to join as members. We'd like to say thanks to everyone who has helped us share the stories of why membership matters.
The final Global Training Days of 2015 took place on November 20th and 21st, right after the Drupal 8 release. While many in the community were finishing their celebrating, the trainers were just getting warmed up to introduce people to the world of Drupal. Thirty-nine sites held a training in 21 countries.
In celebration of the release of Drupal 8, we're showcasing some of the fun that the Drupal community brings with their creative mixes of the Drupal 8 logo. Have one of your own?
On October 13th we launched our 2015 membership drive campaign. The campaign includes a banner on drupal.org that provides more visibility for our membership program. The banner displays a message that is relevant to your Individual Membership status. For members, we invite you to help us grow membership and for all who are not currently an Individual Member, we invite you to support the project you love through by joining the Association.
Here we shine the spotlight on one Global Training Day event that came about from a partnership between a Drupal development company and a local cosmetics company. See more wrap up posts from GTD at https://www.drupal.org/global-training-days/2015.
Global Training Days last weekend was a great success. There were 33 hosts from 21 countries who stepped up to introduce new people to Drupal in both half and full day sessions.
OSCON, the annual open source conference, brings over 4,000 people together in Portland this July. We are a proud participant again this year and we are excited to talk about Drupal to a wider audience.
We all like to show our love for Drupal, and over the past few years, we’ve let Drupal show it loves you! Due to popular demand, we are bringing back a fun gift to Drupal Association members -- personalized certificates of membership. In 2014, we delivered these downloadable certificates to over 600 members and we hope to break this record during the months of May and June this year.
Join as a member or renew your current membership anytime before June 30 and you’ll receive a personalized certificate of membership.
I want to give a big thank you to all of our new and renewing members who gave funds to continue the work of the Drupal Association in the first quarter of this year. We couldn't do much without your support. Shout outs to all of you!
