Investing in Our Mission
The Sustaining Membership tier is designed for individuals and organizations who are unable to contribute time or skills but wish to provide essential financial support to the Open Language Initiative (OLI). Your annual fee acts as a dedicated donation, securing the operational foundation we need to keep our vital pro-bono services running.
Why Sustain OLI?
Your financial support is critical because it ensures OLI can manage the “hidden costs” of being an international, high-impact nonprofit.
Your contribution is used exclusively for operational stability, covering expenses like:
- Technology & Infrastructure:
Licensing fees for secure project management software and internal communication tools.
- Compliance & Administration:
Accounting, legal fees, and mandatory regulatory filings in the Czech Republic.
- Capacity Building:
Developing and delivering the internal training curricula that keep our Volunteer and Contributing Members sharp.
By becoming a Sustaining Member, you are directly investing in the engine that empowers hundreds of volunteers and helps dozens of nonprofits achieve their public benefit goals.
