How can I help?

We get asked, “How can I help you?” or “How can I help the Linux movement?”

We'll list some of the things you can do below. They are broken down into two sections

What can you do for us (cruzit.com) and what you can do for the Linux and/or the Open Source Movement.

What can I do for cruzit.com?

First you should know that cruzit.com is an all volunteer and ad free site.

Check the following. Any help is definitely appreciated. This is an evolving, unordered list.

• Most of the pages of this site have some form of links for donations.
• GoFundMe Page
• Any financial help would be appreciated. Anything from $1.00 a month to $200.00 a month would help a greatly. Use this contact information. ronnie.redd@gmail.com 
  Ronnie has had a series of bad events happen. Ronnie has had 4 strokes in a month and a half followed by 3 seizures among other unfortunate events. Please consider the GoFundMe page.

Personally, I think one of the most important things to do right now, is spread the word. Whether it is via email, websites, forums, burning CD's of your favorite OSS or by word of mouth.

The following may also help:

• Bug reporting is very important. All versions of Linux or the BSD family ( FreeBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFlyBSD, etc.) have bug reporting mechinisms in place. If you experience a bug, please report it.
• Donate some time, money or contact someone on the distribution team to see what kind of hardware they might need. You may have some old computer or peripheral laying around, that they could use in testing.
• Spread the word via Libreoffice.org documents. (inuendo intended)
• Show someone your open source computer doing some magic. Inspire the masses.
