90% of donations to the @libreoffice projects are coming from individuals.
Companies unfortunately do not contribute that much in economical or material way on an #OpenSource project that is the major barrier between freedom of choice and a full monopoly by Microsoft in the office productivity market.
Organisations should realise that a strong LibreOffice helps in creating a healthy competition and lower also their costs.
So, please, contribute in any way you can to help yourself.
Hi @Ahuka, your contributions matter to me a lot.
It's thanks to people like you that @libreoffice can carry on developing the best Open Source Office Suite available.
Apart from donations there are also other ways to help out:

68% des contributions en code proviennent d'entreprises. C'est pas seulement de l'argent qu'il faut pour faire un logiciel.
@tuxicoman
The majority of that 68% comes from members of the ecosystem which pays specialised developers to fix bugs and write new features. They generally get money from TDF tenders and by selling their services.
95% of companies that could contribute with documentations, translations, some code, money or other things do not contribute back.

@libreoffice
Libreoffice Writer is how we write scripts, and Calc is how we do our accounting documents. It's an important piece of infrastructure to maintain.
@paolo @libreoffice I contribute regularly. And in the U.S. it is tax deductible, if that matters to you.
