2020 Financials


In 2020, the WordPress Foundation and its subsidiary provided support and guidance for a total of 33 WordCamps and hundreds of Meetup groups, organized by volunteers in communities all over the world. There were 14 WordCamp events in the US and 19 WordCamp events outside the US. Due to the pandemic, 22 of the WordCamp events were held online.

In 2016, the WordPress Foundation created a subsidiary, organized as a public benefit corporation (a for-profit entity that voluntarily meets higher standards of transparency, accountability, and performance), to provide a fiscal entity to support organizers of WordPress community events. This B-corp is named WordPress Community Support. We’ll report on both entities’ 2020 financials on this page.

WordPress Community Support also supported the publishing of 1,032 videos in 2020 from WordCamps to WordPress.tv with the help of various production companies who assisted with the online format, as well as by providing video camera kits to the in-person WordCamps. These camera kits include an HD camcorder, tripod, external microphone, SD cards, lavalier microphone, and a hard case for shipping.
