I if We: Goals for making a difference together

We aim to support, initially on an invitation only basis, goals for one-time or ongoing funding for projects producing free/libre/open digital works.

Featured projects and their funding goals

Right now, I if We itself is the only project you can pledge to on I if We.

Achieving our first two goals will enable us to invite other projects.

Please help us get to that stage as soon as possible by pledging to one or both of our goals!

• I if We's 1st goal - Get started
• I if We's 2nd goal - Cover expenses

Demo examples

• Leaflet

  Illustrating the lifecycle of a goal on I if We, Leaflet is a fictional free/libre/open app for note-taking.

• Well Chuffed Music

  Illustrating a one-time goal in pounds sterling (GBP), Well Chuffed Music is a fictional UK band raising money to produce their first album, which they'll release as a free/libre/open work.

• Die Lokale Stimme Blog

  Illustrating a monthly goal in Euro (EUR), Die Lokale Stimme Blog is a fictional German blog offering ad-free, paywall-free free/libre/open local journalism without conflicts of interest.

• Snacka På! Podcast

  Illustrating a yearly goal in Swedish Krona (SEK), Snacka På! Podcast is a fictional Swedish ad-free, paywall-free free/libre/open podcast, featuring engaging conversations with unsung heros.

Future directions: Action goals

In future, we want to extend the I if We concept to non-financial collective action goals, such as environmental and democratic actions. Here is an early prototype for a voter participation goal:
