      <p>Besides technical contributions, you can also support the project
        financially.<br />
	There are various ways make a financial contribution:</p>

      <ul>
	<li>Sponsor the <a href="./association.html">Buildroot Association</a>.
	  The association helps Buildroot with infrastructure (servers, domain
	  name, ...) and organising meetings. It relies on money from sponsors
	  to organise those.</li>
	<li>Practical help: providing a meeting room for developer meetings,
	  providing autobuilder instances, etc.</li>
	<li><a href="/lts.html">Buildroot LTS Sponsoring</a>,
	  a specific effort to finance the maintenance of the Long Term Support
	  branch of Buildroot.</li>
      </ul>

      <p>All of these sponsors are thanked by listing them on the <a
        href="./sponsors.html">sponsors page</a>.</p>
