===Help the SME Server project===

{{Tip box|[[Koozali_Foundation_Articles_of_Incorporation|Koozali Foundation Inc]] ('''a Non-Profit Corporation''')  and it's community Contribs.org are '''a collaborative effort of volunteers'''. You can contribute in many ways to SME Server like described in [[:SME Server:Volunteering|Volunteering]], but if you lack the skills or simply want '''to support SME Server in a financial''' way you can donate money. There are two ways to '''donate money to SME Server.'''}}

=== The Koozali SME Server project ===

The <span class="plainlinks">[http://koozali.org '''Koozali Foundation Inc.''']</span> is a nonprofit corporation that governs the open source Koozali SME Server project. Koozali SME Server is a stable, secure and easy to use/manage linux server that provides common server functionalities out of the box. Many open source contributions are available that can extend the default server functionality making Koozali SME Server an even more powerful and flexible business server solution. Thousands of Koozali SME Severs have been deployed as real or virtual servers and in the cloud to serve many small to medium enterprises, and this number is growing day by day. The Koozali SME Server is '''free to use''' but it takes a lot of '''effort and money''' to develop, make, and maintain. We therefore ask you for your considerations.

Koozali Foundation Inc. together with its community hosted at <span class="plainlinks">[https://Contribs.org '''https://contribs.org''']</span> is a collaborative effort of volunteers. You too can contribute to the development and continuity of the Koozali SME Server project as described on our <span class="plainlinks">[[:SME Server:Volunteering|'''volunteering''']]</span> page. Everybody is welcome to join the already 4000+ member <span class="plainlinks">[https://contribs.org contribs.org]</span> community and can contribute with any skill set.
