# DSF Office Hours

**[Django](https://daily.dev/sources/django)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

The Django Software Foundation hosts weekly open office hours every Wednesday at 6:00 PM UTC, open to anyone in the community without an agenda or invitation. Current topics of focus include the ongoing Executive Director search and fundraising efforts to support the role, after the DSF raised its 2026 fundraising goal from $300,000 to $500,000. Office hours are not a coding support channel; the Django Forum is recommended for that instead.

## Questions this post answers

### How much did the Django Software Foundation raise its 2026 fundraising goal to fund an Executive Director hire?

The Django Software Foundation raised its 2026 fundraising goal from $300,000 to $500,000 specifically to support hiring an Executive Director. That increase requires about $16,000 per month in additional recurring support. Companies that depend on Django can contribute through corporate sponsorship, direct donations, or GitHub Sponsors.

_Teams weighing whether to sponsor a project like Django can track funding updates on daily.dev._

### When and how can I join Django Software Foundation office hours?

Django Software Foundation office hours happen every Wednesday at 6:00 PM UTC, with no agenda or invitation required and video call details posted on the DSF Office Hours page. They have run weekly since October 2024 and are open to anyone in the community, including board members, Steering Council members, Django Fellows, and working group members. They are not meant for general coding support, which belongs on the Django Forum instead.

_Contributors tracking how open source foundations run community touchpoints can follow Django governance news on daily.dev._
