Building WordPress Together: Honoring 2025’s WordCamp Contributor Day Table Leads

The WP Community Collective and GoDaddy are pleased to celebrate and support the people who make Contributor Days possible.

Contributor Days are one of the most powerful parts of every WordCamp. The in-person collaboration of the official MakeWP contributor teams that build and maintain WordPress plays a big role in how WordPress gets made.

Contributor Days are also where many new contributors get their first hands-on experience contributing to the open source WordPress project. Focusing on everything from Core to Photos, Contributor Days combine learning, discussion, and human connection into an experience that strengthens both the software and the community behind it.

Every WordCamp Contributor Day is powered by people who care deeply about the WordPress project and the community that makes it thrive. These are the Contributor Day Table Leads: the folks who guide, mentor, troubleshoot, and encourage their teams, who strive to help every new contributor find a place to belong and every returning contributor to feel valued.

At The WP Community Collective, we believe that this kind of leadership deserves recognition and support. Our sponsor GoDaddy believes that too. That’s why we’re so happy to work with GoDaddy to debut our 2025 Contributor Day Table Lead Appreciation Campaign.

Throughout the week, we’ll be highlighting Table Leads from 2025’s flagship WordCamps: WordCamp Asia, WordCamp Europe, and WordCamp US. 

In helping others contribute, these dedicated individuals sustain the ecosystem of contribution that keeps WordPress healthy and growing. While it’s not always quantifiable, their time, care, and expertise have an impact far beyond Contributor Day itself.

Every day, we’ll be sharing individual shout-outs to these dedicated humans, recognizing their unique contributions to our shared community. Follow along on our social channels and help us appreciate and celebrate the people who make WordPress better for everyone. (And if you have had a special Contributor Day experience, please share it with us!)

As part of this campaign, The WPCC will also be offering Contributor Day Table Lead stipends to those who are self-funded (meaning they are not sponsored by a company to attend or participate as part of their employment). These stipends are a small, but tangible way to recognize the personal costs of contributing, and to affirm that every contributor’s time and labor have real value.

Thank you to GoDaddy for helping us celebrate and honor the work of these dedicated WordPress contributors. Your commitment to the ongoing sustainability of open-source and your support for the contributors who make it happen is evident throughout the WordPress community. Thank you for making this appreciation campaign possible. 

And thank you to all of our 2025 Contributor Day Table Leads. 💙 

Together, we’re building a culture that values community as much as code.
