The PSF office is closed today and tomorrow for the U.S. holiday, and much of our tiny-but-mighty team is taking some well-deserved time to rest through the end of the year. Thanks for your patience while we recharge—reminder pings in the new year are always welcome 🎊🎊

I just donated to the Python software foundation. Python has been *the* single most important programming language in my life, personally and professionally, and I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one.

The December edition of the PSF Grants Program Office Hour is kicking off shortly 🐍📋 9 AM EST, 2 PM UTC. We welcome you to join us if you have any PSF Grant related questions, including feedback about the programs pause, as well as its future!
Introducing PSF Grants Program Office Hours
In October 2023, we acknowledged the situation surrounding DjangoCon Africa and noted our intent to make ongoing improvements to the Grants Program. We also recognize that we are in a new world of hybrid programming since the onset of the pandemic which comes with different funding and cost challenges. One step we are taking to refresh the Grants Program (we’ll be reporting on other steps soon) is to establish PSF Grants Program Office Hours. The office hours will be hosted on the Python Software Foundation Discord once a month at 1-2PM UTC (9AM Eastern) on the third Tuesday of the month. (Check what time that is for you.) We invite the Python community to join in to receive support for Grant-related questions and inquiries! If you have urgent or immediate questions related to the Grants Program, please email grants@pyfound.org.
