The Zig Software Foundation is a non-profit corporation founded in 2020 by Andrew Kelley, the creator of Zig, with the goal of supporting the development of the language. Currently, the ZSF is able to offer paid work at competitive rates to a small number of core contributors. We hope to be able to extend this offer to more core contributors in the future.

Zero's Fundraiser
In 2024, ZSF spent 92% of its income directly paying contributors for their work. User activity continues to skyrocket. We have extremely talented new core Zig team members who want to renew their contracts, and some who want to start getting paid for the first time. Our income comes from a diverse set of parties, preventing any one from having undue influence on the project. Your donations help to increase and maintain that diversity. We are looking to increase recurring donations to ZSF in order to satisfy the needs of our new users. More details: https://ziglang.org/news/2025-financials/

Because zig is making great strides towards improving toolchains for everyone.
Jason Watson 2I gave because I have really enjoyed learning zig and would love to see the language continue to evolve independently.
