# Donations

About donations, yes, you are right, we are behind our schedule this
year and hopefully you'll soon read more about that, because yes: we
need donations by many supporters to keep us independent and enable our
work in the next months again. 

So everybody here who wants to support us financially, become a
supporter now: https://fsfe.org/join

# Membership

That is just one of the motions. The other one was:

  18. Future of Fellowship seats (Council)

  The executive should prepare a constitution change to remove the
  Fellowship seats.

  Result: 20 for, 0 against, 3 abstentions
