The *[Essential Open Source Software for Science program](https://chanzuckerberg.com/eoss/)*, initiated by [Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI)](https://chanzuckerberg.com/), supports software maintenance, growth, development, and community engagement for open source tools critical to science.

The program states that "many projects often suffer from a lack of investment a few years into development, which is, paradoxically, right when they start to become widely used". The program, also rightly notes, that “grant-based funding is often exhausted shortly after new software is released, and without support, in-house maintenance of the software and the systems it depends on becomes a struggle.” The program was designed to open source software essential to modern scientific research. Going beyond funding for writing code, there is focus on improving documentation, addressing usability, managing the project, and building community.
