This has been an eventful year for many of us, and [haskell.org](http://haskell.org) is no  
different. This year we’ve continued to support a significant part of  
the Haskell community infrastructure- including [haskell.org](http://haskell.org), Hackage,  
Hoogle, and GHC build infrastructure. We’re able to do this thanks to  
the support of the Haskell community.

In addition to our ongoing work maintaining Haskell community  
infrastructure, we once again participated in the Google Summer of  
Code this year, supporting 12 projects. You can read more about the  
projects here:

As many of you are likely aware, this year also saw some of our  
community successfully launch a new initiative, the Haskell  
Foundation. We are thrilled for the Haskell Foundation and  
congratulate them on their successful launch.

[Haskell.org](http://Haskell.org) is an independent organization, and while we welcome any  
opportunities to collaborate with the Haskell Foundation, we will  
continue to pursue our mission of managing and supporting Haskell  
community infrastructure. If you would like to support [Haskell.org](http://Haskell.org) in  
our mission, you can donate via several method, including PayPay and  
check:

[Haskell.org](http://Haskell.org) can also accept donations through employers via Benevity  
using the unique ID 475236502.

[Haskell.org](http://Haskell.org) is a 501©(3) non-profit, so donations may be  
tax-deductible in your jurisdiction.

Another way to help [haskell.org](http://haskell.org) is to serve on the committee. We have  
three positions opening in 2021, and our call for nominations is open  
through Jan 7th 2021. Please email the committee at  
[committee@haskell.org](mailto:committee@haskell.org) if you would like to nominate yourself or  
someone else for a position.

We look forward to continuing this work with your support in 2021 as  
well as exploring new projects to improve the Haskell community  
infrastructure.

Best wishes, Rebecca Skinner on behalf of the [haskell.org](http://haskell.org) committee.

Any chance of SEPA bank transfers becoming a donation option in the future? I know the donation platform [Liberapay](https://liberapay.com/) uses the payment processor [Stripe](https://stripe.com) to accomplish this, maybe that is also an option for you? I think that will reduce the effort required to donate for Europeans that don’t have a Paypal account (including me). I know Paypal accounts are free, but it requires at least some effort to set up and keep track of. And I generally dislike accounts that I don’t use often floating around on the internet.

Thanks for bringing that up @jaror; I don’t have a lot of info right now to be able to say anything one way or another, but that’s certainly something we can talk about on the committee. I’d encourage you to create a new topic here or on the mailing list with your thoughts and we can work through what might be possible to do. I’ll also bring it up with the committee as well and we can do a little bit of research and figure out what the options might look like on our end.
