Such a great project - both in terms of engineering and as a community. Thanks for everyone's hard work!

A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust. Free and Open Source Forever! 

Our mission is to promote, protect, and advance the free and open source [Bevy ](https://bevyengine.org/)[Bevy Engine](https://bevy.org/) and related open source projects. We coordinate and promote its continued maintenance and development, educate and train members of the general public in its usage, and conduct research and development to advance the state of the art of creating real-time applications and simulations.

In short: **we exist to develop Bevy and teach people how to use it!**

Bevy will always be free and open-source, but it isn't free to make! Because Bevy is free, we rely on the generosity of the Bevy community to fund our efforts. If you are a happy user of Bevy or you believe in our mission, please consider donating!

**Bevy Foundation** currently uses donations in the following ways:

- **Hiring Maintainers:** Maintainers are technical experts that facilitate the development of Bevy by reviewing, adjusting, and merging changes from the Bevy community, reviewing and developing designs, and choosing project direction. They are technical experts that contribute their own changes to Bevy, as well as social experts that ensure the Bevy community is a pleasant and effective place to work. Maintainers serve as public representatives of the project. Our bar for maintainership is high. See our [Bevy Organization](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/docs/the_bevy_organization.md#maintainer) document for details.
- **Infrastructure:** The foundation will pay present and future hosting costs, such as hosting the Bevy website and continuous integration (CI) to validate our code. Currently these costs are low, but we expect them to increase over time.
- **Operational Costs:** Keeping a nonprofit organization compliant and operational takes time and money. These costs are currently very low, but we expect them to increase over time as we grow. Our goal is to minimize these costs as much as possible as our goal is to maximize the amount we spend on actually building Bevy and accomplishing our mission.
