+#### Funding    
+Building open-source software with only a few part-time people is hard! We've secured funding to make sure we can
+hire a full-time staff, attend conferences, and move faster through implementing features you request.
+
+Our goal is to build an incredible research platform and a big supportive community. Many open-source projects
+have gone on to monetize through things like support and special help for big corporations!
+
+If you are one of these corporations, please feel free to reach out to will@pytorchlightning.ai!
