KDE For Activists

Free Software activists give you control over technology, and help defend your digital #rights. We create means that allow us to become organized and connected, bypassing utilities controlled by unethical corporations.

"KDE For Activists" helps you too leverage the tools to effectively organize rallies, privately communicate with fellow #community members, and safely manage your own grassroots #movement .

For activists, by activists.

Support Good People and Adopt an App!

Our developers are volunteers, but they still need funding to travel to meetings and events, take time off their day job to implement those crucial features, and buy or rent equipment and server space.

You can help: Adopt an App during our #fundraiser and give our contributors the resources they need!

Donate to our Fundraiser, Support Good People!

@gnome, @tdforg, @fsfe and many other community-driven Free and Open Source organizations are the Good People of the tech world.

This year we are asking you consider them (and also maybe us!) when you #donate. Help out the people that fight for your digital rights, your privacy,and your right to not be exploited by predatory corporations in the tech industry.
