## Donate

Currently, the best way to support our work is to send a monthly or one-time contribution via GitHub Sponsors. We will be able to accept donations via alternate payment platforms very soon.
MAGIC Grants is our fiscal host, and their custom, open-source donation platform allows you to donate to our project with **Monero**, **Bitcoin**, or **debit/credit card**.

A new donation platform we control to make donating easier will be deployed soon. In the meantime, if you'd like to arrange a donation (including with cryptocurrency), please reach out to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).
Donating with Monero will maximize your donation by lowering our transaction fees while simultaneously [preserving your privacy](../cryptocurrency.md), win-win! You can also donate to us via GitHub Sponsors if you prefer, or if you would like to publicize your support. GitHub does not charge us any fees if you donate as an individual, but may charge us fees if you donate with a GitHub organization, if this is a concern for you.
