The second half of our annual JetBrains fundraiser has been extended through September 14, 2026. Thank you to JetBrains for the extra time. You still have time to renew your PyCharm license or give it a try. You get PyCharm at 30% off, and JetBrains donates 100% of your purchase or renewal to the DSF. This is one of the DSF's bigger fundraisers of the year, and we appreciate everyone who takes a look.

The Executive Director search also closes on September 14, and we are curious to see who reaches out.

JetBrains has been a steady sponsor for years, and it was great to see the chatter around the Django Developers Survey 2026 results we released with them last month. The full report is on the JetBrains site. If you are shopping for an IDE, AI-focused or not, they have a solid product.

If you would like to help with our fundraising goals, we would love to hear from you or your company. The board is happy to talk with individuals too, if you have ideas. Whatever you can do to support us, we appreciate it.

Ways to help

• Renew or start a PyCharm license through the fundraiser before September 14.
• Have your company sponsor the DSF directly.
• Donate on our website or give through GitHub Sponsors.
• Reach out to the board if you want to donate, sponsor, or volunteer, or if you have fundraising ideas.
