Sharing your Support

If you’ve supported a Collective on Open Collective, why not let the rest of your network know?

Spreading the word about a Collective can boost awareness about their work, and help more backers discover them.

So why not tell your friends and colleagues about the groups that mean something to you?

Adding a badge to your website

If you want to tell people which Collectives you’re backing, add this script to your website:

<script src="https://opencollective.com/USERNAME/collectives.js?role=backer"></script>

Make sure to replace USERNAME with your individual profile's handle. This can be found in your profile settings.

You can change your role by editing “role=backer” to “role=admin”, “role=member” or “role=host”, or simply leave it empty.

Sharing on social media

You can also let people know about your support on your social platforms.

This can also be a great opportunity to reach people outside your immediate network and community.

When sharing:

• Add a brief description of what the collective does, and why it’s important

• Include a link to their Contribute To page on Open Collective, or their website

• If they have an account on that social platform, find it and tag them into your message

• Share a little about why this work matters to you specifically
