Explore projects you depend on
As you consider where to find open source contributors to sponsor, consider starting at https://github.com/sponsors/community.
If you're logged in, the sponsors results will start with public dependencies that your repositories depend on.
Using the "Explore as," "Ecosystem," and "Filters" sidebar menus, you can also toggle which of your accounts to view dependencies for and further filter your results.
Explore whom others sponsor
You can see whom a user or organization sponsors on their GitHub profile page.
Consider how you benefit from different contributions

- Tutorials
- Mentoring
- Triaging issues and helping with project management
- Answering questions
- Event planning
For more information on different types of open source contributions, see the Open source guide.
You can check if contributors you've benefited from have GitHub Sponsors profiles by using search at https://github.com/sponsors/community.
Search for a specific project or contributor
