I’d like to see GitHub build into their product a way for Organizations to set donation budgets per user.<p>For example, Microsoft could allocate $100 annual budget per user in their GH Engineer team. The people on those teams could then donate those dollars to whatever open source projects they see fit on GitHub.<p>I know this would require a lot of paperwork, etc, etc, but they’ve already buried themselves in it with donations and seemed to have outsourced most of that to Stripe.<p>I know there would be some shady shit and scams that would happen if this was built, like people donating to their cousins OSS project that has 2 stars and is a fork of Scriptaculous, but there’s lots of different ways to minimize those risks so it’s a moot point.<p>Overall this approach would lower donation friction for both the company and the employee and inject a lot more cash into the donation ecosystem.
