We don't need money, we need volunteers to help maintain and improve the program and especially the documentation.

In my case, I can only imagine I saw the donate option on the website when I first learned of GnuCash, but didn't consider donating as someone who hadn't tried it yet. Since then, I've spent my time in the program itself or on the mailing list rather than the website, so had completely forgotten about that option.

>> Hi,
>> My name is Andrew and I just started working for an online teaching company called Outschool. I am a passionate user of GNUCash for the past two years and I am planning to teach the students the basics of tracking their finances using GNUCash. I wanted to reach out to you all and ask for permission to use GNUCash as a teaching tool. If you can get back to me when you get the chance that would be great!
