Last June (2016) JetBrains PyCharm partnered with the Django Software Foundation to generate a big boost to Django fundraising. The campaign was a huge success. Together we raised a total of $50,000 for the Django Software Foundation!

This year we hope to repeat that success. During the two-week campaign, buy a new PyCharm Professional Edition individual license with a 30% discount code, and all the money raised will go to the DSF’s general fundraising and the Django Fellowship program.

“Django has grown to be a world-class web framework, and coupled with PyCharm’s Django support, we can give tremendous developer productivity,” says Frank Wiles, DSF President. “Last year JetBrains was a great partner for us in support of raising money for the Django Software Foundation, on behalf of the community, I would like to extend our deepest thanks for their generous help. Together we hope to make this a yearly event!”
