There's always room for new volunteers, so if you see something in this video that appeals to you, don't hesitate to reach out. Let's work together and push Joomla forward!

A movement like Joomla can only grow if you help get the message out to the world: if you're in search of a flexible, stable, robust, extendable, secure and fast CMS that's completely yours, Joomla is it.

Shout it from the rooftops!

Enjoy the December issue - our wonderful authors wrote everything with you in mind, so if you see anything you like: share, share, share!

About the author

Before I got my current job as Coordinator Communications & Digital, I ran my own company for 25 years. The first 15 years I was a writer / editor / journalist / writing coach, but then I created my first website with Joomla... and I was hooked. I switched careers and became a website developer. My current job combines these two skills, so that's a win-win 🙂

Why I contribute to Joomla

To many people Joomla is just a tool. But if you look a little closer, you'll notice it's much more than that. It's a living system, raised and nourished by a community of volunteers dedicating their time to make it the best CMS ever. Without volunteers, Joomla wouldn't exist. It's not 'just a product'. Everyone who uses Joomla, can do so because someone, somewhere, contributed to it. I want to give back to the community that keeps Joomla alive.

And, probably needless to say: I love being part of that community. 

Contributing to Joomla by volunteering brought me so much: valuable experience, more knowledge and a better understanding of Joomla and its community, and the opportunity to work together with a crowd of lovely people all over the world.
