As of February 2026, the [PostgreSQL Community Association](https://www.postgres.ca) (PGCA), the [official non-profit organization](https://www.postgres.ca) chartered by the [PostgreSQL Core Team](https://www.postgresql.org/developer/core/) in 2011 to protect the Postgres brand assets, has updated its sponsorship levels and sponsorship prospectus.
## Updated PGCA sponsorship levels
The [PGCA Board](https://www.postgres.ca/about/pgca/) would not be able to protect the PostgreSQL trademarks and brand assets without the [generous financial support](https://www.postgres.ca/donate/) we receive from corporations, small businesses, and individual donors. We are deeply grateful for that support.
After reviewing sponsorship models used by other open source foundations, and in light of the increasing costs required to protect the PostgreSQL brand assets, we have increased the top two [sponsorship levels](https://www.postgres.ca/sponsors/#sponsorship-levels): Benefactor and Patron, effective February 1, 2026. All other sponsorship levels remain unchanged. As always, we welcome and value donations at all levels, in any amount.
## Significant update to the PGCA non-profit website
We’ve also made a significant update to the [PGCA website](https://www.postgres.ca), to modernize it and bring it forward to the present. We hope the new site makes it easier to understand the PGCA’s non-profit mission, learn how to use PostgreSQL trademarks appropriately, and [donate](https://www.postgres.ca/donate/), whether as a one-time or monthly contribution.
The updated PGCA website is at the same URL as before: [www.postgres.ca](https://www.postgres.ca).
Updated sponsorship levels and the sponsorship prospectus can be found on the Sponsors page at [www.postgres.ca/sponsors/](https://www.postgres.ca/sponsors/).
