+## Why Sponsor?
+
+While Starlette and Uvicorn are part of the [Encode](https://github.com/encode) organization,
+they have been primarily maintained by [**Marcelo Trylesinski (Kludex)**](https://github.com/Kludex)
+for the past several years. His dedication and consistent work have been instrumental in keeping
+these projects robust, secure, and up-to-date.
+
+This sponsorship page was created to give the community an opportunity to support Marcelo's continued
+efforts in maintaining and improving both projects. Your sponsorship directly enables him to
+dedicate more time and resources to maintaining and improving these essential tools:
+
+- [x] **Active Development:** Developing new features, enhancing existing ones, and
+  keeping both projects aligned with the latest developments in the Python and ASGI ecosystems. 💻
+- [x] **Community Support:** Providing better support, addressing user issues,
+  and cultivating a welcoming environment for contributors. 🤝
+- [x] **Long-Term Stability:** Ensuring the long-term viability of both projects through strategic
+  planning and addressing technical debt. 🌳
+- [x] **Bug Fixes & Maintenance:** Providing prompt attention to bug reports and
+  general maintenance to keep the projects reliable. 🔨
+- [x] **Security:** Ensuring robust security practices, conducting regular security audits, and
+  promptly addressing vulnerabilities to protect millions of production deployments. 🔒
+- [x] **Documentation:** Creating comprehensive guides, tutorials, and examples to help users of all skill levels. 📖
+
+## How Sponsorship Works
+
+We currently manage sponsorships *exclusively* through **GitHub Sponsors**. This platform integrates seamlessly with the GitHub ecosystem, making it easy for organizations to contribute.

+We want to express our deepest gratitude to all the contributors who have helped shape Starlette and
+Uvicorn over the years. These projects wouldn't be what they are today without the incredible work of
+every single contributor.
+
+Special thanks to some of our most impactful contributors:
+
+- **Tom Christie** ([@tomchristie](https://github.com/tomchristie)) - The original creator of Starlette and Uvicorn.

+You can view all contributors on GitHub:
+[Starlette Contributors](https://github.com/encode/starlette/graphs/contributors) / [Uvicorn Contributors](https://github.com/encode/uvicorn/graphs/contributors).

+to distribute funding to other key contributors in the future. This initiative is still in early planning
+stages, as we want to ensure a fair and sustainable model that recognizes the valuable contributions of
+our community members.
