The D Language Foundation (DLF) is a nonprofit organization devoted to the D programming language[2] launched on October 16, 2015.

The mission of the foundation is to foster development of the D community and is responsible for various processes within the D community, including developing the D programming language, managing intellectual rights, and raising funds.[3][4] The foundation awards scholarships to students allowing them to work on high-impact projects related to the D programming language.[5][6] The D Language Foundation also organizes developer conferences including the yearly D Programming Language Conference (DConf) [7] [8] and is an official organization in the Google Summer of Code .[9][10]

In 2015, Andrei Alexandrescu seeded the D Language Foundation's budget from his royalties [11] and started to work for the D Language Foundation.[12]
