+## 📣 Contributors Wanted — Help Shape Bambuddy
+
+Bambuddy is a community-driven project and I'm **actively looking for contributors** — especially for two areas I can't cover alone:
+
+- 📝 **Documentation writers** — help improve the wiki, guides, and feature docs so new users have a smooth onboarding
+- 💬 **Forum moderators & admins** — we're launching a **Discourse-based community forum** and need people to help moderate, welcome newcomers, and keep discussions healthy
+
+You don't need to be a developer. If you enjoy writing, helping others, or keeping a community friendly, you're exactly who we're looking for.
+
+**Get in touch:**
+- 💬 [Discord](https://discord.gg/aFS3ZfScHM) — fastest way to chat
+- 🐙 [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/discussions) — open a thread
+- 📧 **martin@bambuddy.cool** — email Martin directly (no GitHub or Discord needed)
