How to participate
- Contact fundraising@apache.org to discuss Foundation Sponsorship; targeted sponsorships require ASF/project pre-approval.
- Check the channel's current eligibility, audience rules, and content or listing requirements.
- Track qualified visits, sign-ups, or partner-sourced pipeline with a channel-specific measure.
Rules and practical details
- This is a substantial nonprofit sponsorship rather than a low-cost performance channel; benefits are recognition-oriented and do not guarantee product leads.
- Corporate sponsorship; targeted sponsorship requires a minimum three-year commitment, and ASF may decline sponsors under its policies.
