OSI Affiliate Organizations is an excellent opportunity for nonprofit organizations, open source projects & communities, educational institutions (K12 & Higher Ed.), and user groups to more deeply engage in and with the open source community. Affiliate membership is an ideal way for open source projects, and the communities that support them, to promote and extend the OSI mission, and contribute to the continued awareness and adoption of Open Source Software. If your organization believes in Open Source Software and your community wants to support our work, like all of the dedicated organizations listed below, please consider joining.
