Yes! We’re a 501c3 nonprofit, so all donations are tax-deductible.

Yes! Services and access to platforms/software that support our operations in general are always helpful. We also greatly appreciate material donations for specific events, including but not limited to food and beverage, promotional items, A/V resources (including rentals), and transportation.

In-kind donations are deductible based on their market value.

We’re an all-volunteer organization and we run as lean as possible. We have nominal overhead costs (e.g., website hosting), but, other than that, your donation goes directly to programming: collaboration, challenges and hackathons, educational initiatives, and project-based efforts to address collaboration and development gaps in the ecosystem.

Absolutely! Staffing bandwidth is our main constraint. Please use our contact form or email info@rmsec.org with:
