Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is easy to contribute to and modify. FOSS is free and accessible to all.

Contributing to open source projects allows you to learn, build your portfolio, network with other contributors, and even get paid.

The Outreachy internship program provides you with the opportunity to contribute to open source projects, learn from experienced FOSS contributors, and get paid while doing all this remotely.
