Obrigado pelo seu interesse em ajudar o projeto FreeCAD com doações.

O FreeCAD é um projeto de rápido crescimento, desenvolvido por uma comunidade de desenvolvedores e usuários que trabalham principalmente de forma voluntária , motivados principalmente pela vontade de construir um ótimo modelador paramétrico 3D gratuito. O desenvolvimento do FreeCAD acontece principalmente pela energia de todas essas pessoas, sem a necessidade de dinheiro.

No entanto, o dinheiro pode ajudar o projeto a atingir muitos outros objetivos. Ele pode ajudar alguns de seus desenvolvedores a trabalhar mais frequentemente ou mais regularmente no projeto, pagando pelo tempo deles para que possam se dedicar mais ao FreeCAD, ou pode ajudar a comunidade a enviar pessoas para eventos sobre CAD, para que possamos mostrar o FreeCAD e interessar usuários profissionais. Também pode ajudar a organizar eventos por conta própria para que os membros da comunidade possam se encontrar, pagar por espaço de servidor e serviços da Web, e muitas outras coisas.

There are several ways you can donate money and help the FreeCAD project, being an individual, a company or an institution, depending on your preferences. The money you donate to the FreeCAD project will be received and handled by the FreeCAD Project Association (FPA), a non-profit association created by FreeCAD administrators and core developers. The FPA will redistribute the money it gathers to FreeCAD developers and sponsor itself several projects, efforts and ideas to fuel the development of FreeCAD.

Remember, however: FreeCAD is free, and will always be free. You are not required, and never will be, to donate anything in order to use FreeCAD, neither to modify or distribute it. Your donation will be welcome, and can help a lot, but you will never be required to pay anything to access any of the FreeCAD features.

If you are not sure or not able to commit to a regular donation, but still want to help the project, you can do a one-time donation, of any amount.

Choose freely the amount you wish to donate one time only:

We call sponsoring the act of donating money recurrently to the FreeCAD project. You can do that as an individual or as a company or institution, through different channels or platforms, depending on your preferences.

Sponsoring FreeCAD allows its developers to count on a steady flow of income, so it allows the FPA to plan things ahead, and the FreeCAD developers to invest themselves more seriously into FreeCAD.

To encourage persons and companies to sponsor the FreeCAD project, we have created different sponsoring tiers. When donating regularly to the project, unless you prefer to stay anonymous, your name, company name and/or logo will be featured on this website, depending on the tier you fit into:

• ♥ Patrocinador Normal: from 1 USD / 1 EUR per month. You will not have your name displayed here, but you will have helped the project a lot anyway. Together, normal sponsors maintain the project on its feet as much as the bigger sponsors.
• 🥉 Patrocinador Bronze: from 25 USD / 25 EUR per month. Your name or company name is displayed on this page.
• 🥈 Patrocinador Prata: from 100 USD / 100 EUR per month. Your name or company name is displayed on this page, with a link to your website, and a one-line description text.
• 🥇 Patrocinadores Ouro: from 200 USD / 200 EUR per month. Your name or company name and logo displayed on this page, with a link to your website and a custom description text. Companies that have helped FreeCAD early on also appear under Gold sponsors.

Instead of donating each month, you might find it more comfortable to make a one-time donation that, when divided by twelve, would give you right to enter a sponsoring tier. Don't hesitate to do so!
