Drupal community members are supporters of the Drupal Association because they want to support the Drupal project and DA membership is an easy way to do so. When you join or renew, you get more than just good karma, and you give Drupal more than just member funds. You just need a Drupal.org profile, a little bit of money for member dues (a sliding scale starting at $15 or € 15), and 10 minutes to sign up or renew your membership.
What do I mean about what you give Drupal? Well, you
...send grants to grow Drupal in various locations around the world.
...make it possible for Global Training Days to unite new-to-Drupal trainees to gather on the same day each quarter wherever a GTD training is held.
...fly people to DrupalCons who have demonstrated their commitment to Drupal through their own giving to the project. Those passionate contributors then inspire other DrupalCon attendees. Talk about a win-win!
...help the DA to maintain priority #1: maintain and improve Drupal.org so you can keep your focus on the Drupal project.
And here’s what you get:
- A badge for all the community to see you fund all the great things listed above
- Gratitude from all the people who give their time and energy to Drupal- especially the teams supporting our home of Drupal.org, infrastructure, people solving issues in the queue and many more.
- Discounts on services provided by companies who want to thank you for your DA membership too. Several of these offers return the cash right back into your pocket so again, a win-win!
But if being a member is just not an option for you right now, here are a few other ways to support the Drupal community:
