Because you care about the existence of django CMS and its future! Your membership is a statement of support to the django CMS open source project. We all benefit from the license free django CMS, whether we use it for our websites or for customer projects. However, to be prepared for future challenges, financial means are needed to secure django CMS success and sustainability. For this reason we have founded the association. As a member, you not only participate financially, you also get a say in the future of django CMS. With your votes at the General Assembly you can decide in which direction django CMS should develop, from a product point of view or as an open source project in general. 

We offer a range of corporate memberships with different fees depending on the size of the company and the savings made from using a license-free CMS.
