Thanks to the @fsf for promoting GNU Guix's fundraising.
Like many other Free Software project's we depend on our users and fans support to pay for the project's expenses.
We're running a campaign to 'sustain and strengthen' Guix. As a #linux distribution we have a lot of #packages which costs quite a bit to build and distribute to users. And, as we use the declarative and reproducible system pioneered by #Nix we rebuild packages whenever there's a change.
If you'd like to know more about what we're doing, or support the project you can check out the blog post:

We appreciate any support that people can give!

「 As a package manager and GNU/Linux distribution Guix has some unique needs. As the distribution grows and becomes more popular our costs also grow. Each package that's added to the distribution increases the number of builds. And, as more people use Guix the cost of delivering those packages also grows 」
