Clarification of entities
Open Collective. Inc (OC) is a for-profit entity. We are responsible for building the Open Collective Platform that many fiscal hosts use for their operations.
The founders of Open Collective also founded and supported the early development of several nonprofit organizations:
Open Collective Foundation (OCF) a US-based 501(c)(3) fiscal host that hosts charitable projects, and which has chosen to dissolve.
Open Source Collective (OSC) a US-based 501(c)(6) fiscal host that only hosts open source software-related projects and which continues to operate in good health.
Open Collective Europe (OCE) a European based organization with the ability to have 501(c)(3) equivalency in the US, hosting open source, solidarity, artistic, and cultural projects principally rooted in or connected to Europe and which continues to operate in good health.
These entities all have similar names and share similar origins, having been started by the founders of Open Collective and incubated in the Open Collective ecosystem, but are independent nonprofits with their own budget, accounts, staff, board of directors, and mission. They each have a separate commercial relationship with Open Collective.
Whelp, I have a monthly donation for lemmy there. I guess it should be removed from lemmy's donation page: https://join-lemmy.org/donate
I think their donations are handled by OpenCollective inc. rather than the OCF but I might be wrong
Wait, so opencollective.com is still on going and not affected?
