MEMBER FUNDED INITIATIVES PROGRAM

The Eclipse Foundation is pleased to introduce the Member Funded Initiative Program.  This new program formalizes a service we have been offering over the past while to facilitate initiatives on behalf of member companies and working groups.

The intent is to enable members to fund initiatives that are important to them that, for a variety of reasons, are easier or more effective to fund as a community-based initiative. These initiatives include facilitating directed development initiatives, carrying out marketing campaigns for projects, etc.

For more information, or to participate in the program, please email membership@xxxxxxxxxxx.
