# PyCharm for Django Fundraiser: Why Django Matters in the AI Era – And Why We’re Supporting It

**[JetBrains](https://daily.dev/sources/jetbrains)** · 4 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

JetBrains is running a fundraiser offering 30% off PyCharm Pro with 100% of proceeds going to the Django Software Foundation (DSF). The campaign highlights Django's continued relevance in the AI era, arguing that while AI can scaffold apps quickly, mature frameworks like Django provide the stable foundation that keeps them running long-term. Since 2016, similar campaigns have raised $350,000 for the DSF, accounting for roughly 25% of its budget. The offer also includes a bundle with JetBrains AI Pro at 40% off PyCharm Pro, and runs for less than two weeks.
