<blockquote>
<p><strong>Update on 2013-11-15:</strong> As can be seen, Conservancy has not
reached our fundraising target. However, as we promised below, we've begun
work on this project, but we'd really appreciate more donations, as we've
needed to make a lot of compromises in our plans since we didn't reach our
fundraising goal. Furthermore, we welcome volunteers to join
us <a href="http://npoacct.sfconservancy.org">in contributing to the
project</a>.</p>

<p>Conservancy has a plan to help all non-profit organizations (NPOs) by
creating an Open Source and Free Software accounting system usable by
non-technical bookkeepers, accountants, and non-profit managers. You can
help us do it by donating now.
</p>
<p>To keep their books and produce annual government filings, most NPOs rely
on proprietary software, paying exorbitant licensing fees. This is
fundamentally at cross purposes with their underlying missions of charity,
equality, democracy, and sharing.</p>
<p>You can help Conservancy fix this problem by <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">donating now</a>. We seek to
raise $75,000 to employ a
developer for one year to make substantial progress on this project.</p>
<p>This project has the potential to save the non-profit sector
millions in licensing fees every year. Even non-profits that continue to use proprietary accounting
software will benefit, since the existence of quality Open Source and Free
Software for a particular task curtails predatory behavior by proprietary
software companies, and creates a new standard of comparison.</p>
<p>But, more powerfully, this project's realization
will increase the agility and collaborative potential
for the non-profit sector — a boon to funders, boards, and employees — bringing the Free Software and general NPO communities
