What donations can be used for:
1. Merchandise & promo materials
Items that are given away for free, or given in return for a donation equal to or bigger than the costs. Some items might be given away only in specific situations or under specific conditions. Only expenses of items whose environmental impact have been taken into consideration (e.g. GOTS certification for clothing).
Examples & Ideas
Stickers, branded headphones, socks, t-shirts and/or hoodies.
Products may be given to contributors/community members free of charge in these cases:
2. Presentation materials
Materials like posters or roll-up banners, only when needed for a specific event. Expenses for digital products (e.g. advertising space) are not accepted.
3. Project running
Foreseen services or products to (help) keep the project going, and unexpected costs that are strictly necessary for the project.
Examples of foreseen costs
Examples of unexpected costs
4. Community gatherings
Products and services that support community-building during community gatherings (e.g. food & drinks for a meeting at FOSDEM). Expenses accepted only if 5 or more people signed up and show up at the gathering, and only if the gathering was announced to the community at least 2 weeks in advance.
5. Upstream & Peer contributions
Projects that contribute to an open podcasting ecosystem or an open source Android ecosystem may be given donations from AntennaPod’s funds.
