Funding

Funded entirely by donations. Open Source Glasgow exists to provide education on open and free software as well as help community groups in Glasgow form online presences (e.g. free websites and training). We also run an open Mastodon server for Glasgow, a Glasgow Matrix server and The Open Guide to Glasgow.

Since operations started in April 2019, we've recieved £5,057 in private donations. Recent operating costs are approximately £182/month (see below for a breakdown).
