Funding Announcement: ZeroBase Secures $5 Million to Expand Global Impact of Open-Source Health Technology

We’re excited to announce that the Zerobase Foundation has successfully raised $5,000,000 in our latest funding round, marking a monumental step forward in our commitment to building open-source public health technology for communities worldwide. As a nonprofit organization, our mission is driven by a passionate team of over 170 volunteers who are dedicated to leveraging technology for the greater good. With this funding, we plan to enhance our free, privacy-first contact tracing software, which utilizes QR code scanning to create comprehensive maps of COVID-19’s path within communities. This innovative tool not only empowers individuals to track potential exposure but also provides vital insights for community locations, helping to mitigate the spread of the virus more effectively. The funds will also support our goal of expanding our technological capabilities, improving our user interface, and increasing volunteer engagement across our international open-source community. We believe that by fostering collaboration and innovation in public health technology, we can empower communities to proactively protect their health. We invite you to join our mission and be part of this transformative journey by visiting us at www.github.com/zerobase-io/. Together, we can create a healthier future for all, utilizing the power of open-source solutions to tackle pressing public health challenges head-on. Thank you to our supporters and community members—this funding is a testament to the belief in our vision, and we look forward to making impactful strides in public health technology with your continued support.
