## Funded projects
We welcome proposals for new funded projects (as of 2025).
Anyone can propose a project and a funding amount (in line with our current [funds](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger_finance?tab=readme-ov-file#assets--liabilities-by-year)), and if approved, do the work, and as deliverables are met, we pay you.

so we invite other organisations or individuals to help fund projects (or call for proposals).
Each proposal begins as an issue, which gets the `funded-project` label when approved.
Here are the [funded projects](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Afunded-project).
