donate

Your support helps us cover the essential costs of making this vision real.

We use OpenCollective as our primary donation platform. You can directly make a donation here:

Right now, donations will go toward:

• Setting up our physical space, including strong storage shelving, workbenches and desks, and essential shop infrastructure. Stocking the space with hand tools, electronics supplies, and basic equipment for collaborative projects.
• Creating safe conditions for members and visitors, including first aid resources, fire safety gear, and well-organized work areas.
• Covering early operational expenses—utilities, insurance, and similar requirements.
• Helping us host open houses, workshops, and other events to connect with the larger community.

Please keep in mind the following:

• Your contribution is a voluntary and irrevocable gift to help build dma.space and get it up and running. It is not an investment, loan, or purchase, and it is given without expectation of any goods, services, membership privileges or other compensation in return.
• dma.space is not yet a 501(c)(3) non-profit. This means your donation is not tax-deductible today. Though we are actively working on our application and your contribution may be deductible at some point in the future, we cannot guarantee it.
• We are putting all our effort into making the space a reality, however, in the unlikely event we aren’t able to launch by December 31st, 2026, we will do our best to refund all remaining funds. Your refund will be calculated proportionally based on your share of total donations, after any documented expenses up to that point are deducted.
