How it works

We'll work with you to establish the best vehicle for you and your organization, for instance setting up a Fund, issuing employee gift cards, or simply making a large, one-off donation. Then:

Open Source Collective will register as a provider to your organization including signing any necessary agreements. We also have template agreements of our own and experienced legal counsel to review yours.
Your procurement team may generate a purchase order.
We'll issue an invoice to your organization.
When the invoice is paid we will distribute the funds as agreed.

Fees

Open Source Collective charges a fixed 10% fee on all contributions received on the initial deposit. i.e. we do not charge an additional 10% to Collectives when donation distributions are made.
