Fedora is funded entirely through the contributions of DuraSpace members that allocate their annual funding to Fedora. The 2017 2016 membership campaign raised a total of $564,750 from 74 members. The annual goal was $580,000, so we raised over 97% of our target funding. Thank you to all the institutions that supported Fedora in 2016, and to our Leadership Group for their hard work in advocating for Fedora around the world. Our 2017 membership campaign will kick off in a few months, and if your institution is not yet a member of DuraSpace in support of Fedora, please join us!
