Blender Foundation facilitates a public project on blender.org with the mission to get the world’s best 3D CG technology in the hands of artists as free/open source software.
Our vision is that everyone should be free to create 3D CG content, with free technical and creative production means and free access to markets.
The Foundation’s goals are:
Manage the facilities on blender.org for users and developers who want to contribute to Blender.
Maintain and improve the current Blender product via a public accessible source code system under the GNU General Public License.
Establish funding or revenue mechanisms that serve the foundation’s goals and cover the foundation’s expenses.
Provide individual artists and small teams with a complete, free and open source 3D creation pipeline
