The Perl & Raku Foundation is dedicated to the advancement of the Perl and Raku programming languages, through open discussion, collaboration, design, and code.
Funding Perl and Raku development#
The Perl Foundation accepts donations from organizations that depend on Perl or Raku, and from individuals who love programming with the Perl or Raku languages. Our desire is to build a strong, healthy and sustainable language ecosystem and community.
If you use Perl or Raku to support your business, or as a hobby, your donation will help fund projects and events that support continued development. Check out our prospectus.

TPRF Grants#
Our grant programs help fund development of open source projects to benefit Perl, Raku and the broader Community. These grants are funded by donations and help support open source developers.
Events#
Open source development is driven by in-person events where developers share ideas, code, and have fun.
The Foundation helps to sponsor many events, worldwide, each year. Join us at The Perl and Raku Conference 2025.
