Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-consensus] [omni-discuss] Noisebridge wants to financially support Sudo Room & Omni Commons

there's a bunch of money in Sudo's bank account at Unify -- between the Unify account and Sudo's paypal account -- there is a little over $6000. There are a handful of small expenses that Sudo regularly pays out of those accounts, but not much.  I feel uncomfortable broadcasting that Sudo owes $18k without acknowledging this $6k that Omni could access. It is an awkward situation, in that I am unclear on what the process is for Omni "claiming" funds in a collective's account for rent. However, to me, this seems like an envelope with $6k in it sitting on Omni's desk that for some reason isn't being deposited or applied to back rent ?   Sarah L On Tue, Jul 6, 2021 at 9:32 PM robb &lt;sf99er(a)gmail.com <mailto:sf99er@gmail.com>> wrote: i can confirm that Sudo Room made a $6,000 payment in April & is still $18,000 in debt, now. several members are currently working on installing an exhaust fan on the roof as the lack of ventilation is a concern for reopening On Tue, Jul 6, 2021 at 9:19 PM Dane &lt;wanderingsearch1(a)gmail.com <mailto:wanderingsearch1@gmail.com>> wrote: Hey Omni Commmons, I am in Noisebridge hackerspace meeting and Noisebridge is interested in donating money to Sudo Room that would ultimately go to Omni Commons (pay debt etc.) Potentially matching funds if Sudo Room self-organizes (that could be a lot !) https://discuss.noisebridge.info/t/discussion-item-noisebridge-donate-to-th… <https://discuss.noisebridge.info/t/discussion-item-noisebridge-donate-to-the-omni-commons-in-support-of-sudoroom/2454?u=d-pain> Noisebridge folks want to see more about what Sudo Room & Omni Commons have been doing, etc. before donating,  along with stronger interactions between Sudo Room & Noisebridge and  Omni Commons & Noisebridge. Sudo Room needs to have stronger outreach, social media, & organizing events  (virtual for now.)  Based upon our social media, Sudo Room appears to be no more or on permanent hiatus.  I have posted on Omni Commons Twitter & Instagram about new stuff happening at Sudo Room which brought renewed awareness of Sudo Room current status. Sudo Room is around $18,000 in debt so far (?)  If Sudo Room updates social media and organizes an online fundraiser,  that might strengthen the case for Noisebridge donating money and bringing in new SR members for long-term sustainability.  Omni Commons as overall project & physical space has been busy everyday with mutual aid & food justice organizing   ( East Bay Food Not Bombs, North Oakland Mutual Aid, Acta Non Verba )  Omni Commons has fairly strong outreach on social media for reaching new donors, volunteers, collective members, etc. (Instagram & Twitter both updated either everyday or every other day in regards to everyday grassroots organizing...not sure what deal with Omni Commons facebook is, not super active and not on point ?  (another fundraiser digital source) https://mobile.twitter.com/omnicommons <https://mobile.twitter.com/omnicommons> instagram.com/omni.commons/ <http://instagram.com/omni.commons/> Overall thing is strong outreach by Omni Commons, Sudo Room, and all 9 member collectives/groups including  North Oakland Mutual Aid is one of many _*essential*_ aspects of getting more awareness, more OC members, and monetary fundraising.  Dane _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org <mailto:discuss@lists.omnicommons.org> https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/discuss <https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/discuss> _______________________________________________ consensus mailing list consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org <mailto:consensus@lists.omnicommons.org> https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/consensus <https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/consensus>
