The Drupal community is full of people who make the world a brighter place. This month we are sharing more about the community members participating in our membership drive in this blog series. We work together, we motivate each other, and we learn together. Thank you to our community for inspiring us every day.

What Gemma says about membership

Thanks to the people who made my scholarship possible. It was an amazing opportunity. It paved the way for me to see DrupalCon in Sydney. DrupalCon helped me learn more about how deep the culture of the Drupal community is around the world. It opened my eyes to the wonderful things that Drupal can do for me and my community. It helped me polish my skills in Drupal. The imparting of knowledge from the speakers was amazing, the talks reminded me that Drupal is really powerful, and it helped me understand that without the community contribution and the people who continue contributing to core and code, there would be no community.

I learned good things that I can adopt for my local community in the Philippines, such as the proper approach in creating amazing meet-ups and conferences, and discovering how to cater to needs per individual in order to help them grow their skills in Drupal and encourage them to contribute back to the community.

If you are not yet a member, join the Drupal Association and be part of our success together.
