.NET on AWS Open Source Software Fund (FOSS fund)

The .NET on AWS team is committed to supporting a healthy and thriving .NET OSS ecosystem. We understand that .NET Open Source is a labor of love for a lot of project maintainers and we want to show our appreciation to projects that are vital to the ecosystem.

What is the fund?

In 2023, we increased the size of the program, continuing on the work done in 2022 when 10 projects were selected and given a one-time donation of $5,000. We now have an expanded process for selecting projects with increased funding, one per month, with a per project funding of $6,000.

Every month a new fund will be initiated, with a selection process that is unique every month. Instead of a one-time donation, the selected project will receive 12 monthly donations, via GitHub sponsors, in the amount of $500, totalling $6,000.

How projects get selected?

Every month, the selection committee nominates 2-3 projects to put up for selection. There are some criteria for projects to be eligible.

The project has an OSI-approved open source license

Must have GitHub Sponsors enabled for the organization/primary user of the project

Project is making a decision to actively prioritize diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.

Once all nominations are complete, the selection committee will vote, via ranked-choice voting, to select a project to award the grant to. The news of this award will be made to the maintainer and if the recipient chooses to receive the award, the donation will be initiated via GitHub sponsors. If the recipient declines the award, the 2nd place vote getter will be notified and so on. Once initial funding has been completed, the selected project will be announced here as well as amplified on the @dotnetOnAWS Twitter Handle

Other FOSS Funds

The .NET on AWS team is not alone in funding to Open Source via a FOSS Fund model. The model was initially created by the open source engineering group at Indeed, and has been iterated by countless other companies. If you are interested in learning more about their approach, you can read the blog post The FOSS Contributor Fund: Six Months In.
