	<h1>Support Eclipse</h1>
	<p>
		There are three simple ways you can financially support the Eclipse
		Foundation. Choose whichever way is best for you, and please do not
		hesitate to <a href="mailto:membership@eclipse.org">contact us.</a>
	</p>


	<h2>1 - Become an Associate Member</h2>
	<ul>
		<li>What are the benefits of becoming an Associate Member?</li>
		<p>
			The key benefit is supporting the infrastructure that brings you <a
				href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/images/c/ca/Eclipse_foundation_about_us.pdf">great
				open source software</a>! In addition to that, we'll put you on the
			inside track of information about the Eclipse Ecosystem, invite you
			to members' meetings, and give you discounts to Foundation events
			&mdash; and your staff will appreciate knowing you support free
			software too. If you would like more benefits, such as help promoting
			your products and services to the Eclipse Ecosystem, voting rights,
			and board representation, consider <a
				href="http://www.eclipse.org/membership/become_a_member/"
				target="_blank">other membership options</a>.
		</p>
		<li>How do I become an Associate Member?</li>
		<p>
			It's easy &mdash; just complete and fax these three documents listed
			on our <a
				href="http://www.eclipse.org/membership/become_a_member/membershipProcess.php">Membership
				Page</a>. It really is quite simple. One doc is simply for your
			contact information. Another doc says it's ok for us to post your
			logo (and vice versa). The third doc has a lot of stuff relevant to
			other membership classes; for Associate Membership, it basically says
			that you agree to support the Foundation and we agree to invite you
			to the members' meetings and events.
		</p>
		<li>How much is Associate Membership?</li>
		<p>The minimum contribution is $5,000 USD per year. If it's more
			convenient for you, we can break that into quarterly payments.</p>

	</ul>

	<h2>2 - Be a Corporate Sponsor</h2>
	<p>
		If Associate Membership isn't your style, there are other ways to
		financially support the Eclipse Foundation. Please <a
			href="mailto:membership@eclipse.org">contact us</a> to discuss some
		of the options including:


	<ul>
		<li>Being a logo sponsor of Eclipse Foundation events</li>
		<li>Being a corporate sponsor for some of our <a
			href="http://www.eclipse.org/org/foundation/thankyou.php">infrastructure</a></li>
		<li>Simply making a cash contribution</li>
	</ul>
	</p>

	<h2>3 - Become a Friend of Eclipse</h2>
	<p>
		If having your organization become a member or sponsor isn't in the
		cards, and you still want to show support for the Eclipse Foundation,
		consider personally becoming a <a
			href="http://eclipse.org/donate/index.php">Friend of Eclipse</a>. <br>
		<br> <br>
