# Support the Project

> urantia.dev runs on donations. What the hosting costs, and how to help.

I'm Kelson. I build and maintain this project. Write to [kelson@urantia.dev](mailto:kelson@urantia.dev).

urantia.dev is an open API for the Urantia Papers. The code is MIT-licensed. The English text is in the public domain, and the audio and data are CC0. Anyone can build on it without asking.
