At my work we use a few open source projects in critical infra, but I'm sad that we are pretty shit at budgeting for donating to said projects
If budgeting donations is difficult, maybe donating time is more viable?
Employees are already paid for. Less people involved to approve too.
If you have the autonomy you may even be able to to without explicit approval.
Yeah we are pretty bad at upstreaming too...
