ECLIPSE FOUNDATION ANNUAL DONATION CAMPAIGN

The Eclipse Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that is mainly funded by fees from our corporate members. Their support of the Eclipse Foundation is essential to the ongoing operations.

To supplement the corporate member support, and to encourage end-user support, we are launching the October Donation Campaign. The goal is to have over 1000 individuals donate to the Eclipse Foundation and help support the overall community. 

Please take the time to donate to the Eclipse Foundation. For those who have donated in the past, thank you! You will also notice that we now accept credit cards. This will make it easier for people who can’t/won’t use Paypal or bitcoin.
