# Sponsors
For transparency, here is a short overview of sponsors to MapComplete.
This ties in closely to the history of the project as well.
## Current sponsors
There is a [Liberapay](https://liberapay.com/pietervdvn).
NL-Net is currently sponsoring Pietervdvn as well [for specific improvements](https://github.com/pietervdvn/MapComplete/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ANLNet).
## Historical sponsors
The following organisations ordered a theme to Pieter Vander Vennet and thus sponsored the project.
As these projects are finished, they have no relation with the project anymore.
Most recent projects are first:
### BOSA (OSOC 2022)
See https://osoc.be/editions/2022/removing-obstacles-with-open-data
### Antwerpse Zuidrand (2020 - 2021)
Antwerpse Zuidrand commissioned a map with [playgrounds and hiking routes](https://mapcomplete.org/speelplekken)
### OSM UK (2021)
OSM UK commissioned an [address importer](https://mapcomplete.org/uk_addresses)
### Toerisme Vlaanderen (2021 - 2022)
Visit Flanders commissioned a theme with electrical charging stations for ebikes, benches, parks, playgrounds, ... and ordered the 'note import'-flow.
For more information, see https://toerismevlaanderen.be/nl/pinjepunt
### Natuurpunt and Provincie Oost-Vlaanderen (OSOC 2021)
See https://osoc.be/editions/2021/nature-moves and https://osoc.be/editions/2021/bikeinfrastructure
### Brussels Mobility (OSOC 2020)
When the first version of Buurtnatuur.be was online, Brussels Mobility sponsored an [Open Summer of Code Project](https://osoc.be/editions/2020/cyclofix), resulting in the cyclofix theme.
The codebase was refactored in order to support multiple themes just before the start of OSOC.
### Belgian Green Party (2020)
The first version of what would later become 'MapComplete' was financed by the Belgian Green Party.
With the Corona-lockdown in full swing, they wanted to do something with _nature and green spaces near people, maybe inventorizing all parks, forests and nature reserves_.
[The original website](https://buurtnatuur.be/) can still be visited, the oldest version still online.
