Yes. If you go to the Phalcon homepage and scroll wayyy down to the bottom, you'll see a button leading to that page. It's not very obvious that they even started a raising funds, but it's legit.

ahh there it is, well hidden ;-)

imo for more donations it would be better to make an official announcement on blog, forum, twitter, etc.

I agree 100%! I didn't even know fund raising was going on until I saw someone mention it in another thread and went looking for it.

Yes, this is a real fund, we started it a couple of days ago, we're preparing a post in the forum to explain the goals of the funding, thanks for sharing link

@phalcon, quite worrying, it seems that the community has lost interest in donating or campaign is not large enough visible. In recent days there has been no donation.

@phalcon, any progress in marketing?

we can get much more traffic "for donation" via facebook, twitter etc. if we use pingbacks to blog posts and official announcements on phalcon homepage.
