# Support the Neos Project development with bounties

The Neos project is in the process of founding a legal body. Until then it is not possible to directly donate to the Neos project.
For the time being Sandstorm Media has therefore agreed with the Neos team to sell Neos supporter badges and use all revenues to
support the Neos project. [Check our donations page](https://www.neos.io/contribute/donating-to-neos.html)
