>> 100% of donations received go towards funding diversity programs.

Are there any organizations that use their donations to focus on supporting developers of actual open-source projects?

Diversity is great an all, but it makes more sense to focus on the people who are actually doing the work rather than the ones you hope might do the work.

That's a real shame because other than the note at the bottom, it doesn't really make clear where donations are going. I'd honestly admit that my belief was different to reality, and I'm not entirely certain what "funding diversity programs" means in this context.

I work with the LF and have now followed up with Daniel about partnering with us.

Diversity efforts refer to scholarships at LF-organized events such as https://events.linuxfoundation.org/kubecon-cloudnativecon-eu....

Thanks for the update, glad you've followed up now!

Are diversity scholarship applicants to KubeCon generally Kubernetes contributors?

Not necessarily. Here are some of the past ones:
