Furries make the internet go, and we need infrastructure that belongs to us. &nbsp;Donate today to make the .furry TLD a reality and support Furry and LGBTQIA+ organizations and spaces. You may remember around 2012 that there were suddenly more ways for our websites to end, including .social, .engineering, and the ever popular .dog.&nbsp; We believe the time has come to add .furry to this esteemed list. &nbsp;These endings are called generic Top Level Domains (gTLD for short). ICANN, the organization in charge of this canonical list, has begun the process of creating a new wave of gTLDs. Getting a new TLD approved is an expensive affair &mdash; on the order of $250,000.&nbsp; That&#39;s where we have good news.Our hackerspace and non-profit, Pawprint Prototyping, has been accepted to a new program ICANN has introduced called the Applicant Support Program (ASP). This program aims to provide access to smaller organizations like us, who would normally be unable to participate in gTLD creation due to prohibitive expense. Under this program, a large majority of the typical fees are waived. Which may leave you asking why we&#39;re crowdfunding. The ASP reduces gTLD application fees by 75%. We&#39;re raising $70,000 to cover the remaining application fees, legal costs, and operational expenses required to bring .furry to life. 100% of the profit from .furry will be used to fund:<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Furry and LGBTQIA+ organizations and spaces.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">The ongoing educational mission of our non-profit hackerspace.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Future development focused on digital sovereignty within our community.</li></ul>As a non-profit, Pawprint Prototyping has no shareholders &mdash; no one trying to bleed customers dry to line pockets.
