Hello at this week's meeting we made a new
fundraising strategy, that is
participatory.
==Background==
Last year we won two $4,000 cash grants, and a $2,000 3D printer just by
being sudo room and filling out forms.
==New fundraising Idea==
1. Any sudoer can fill out, or add to this list of 41 grants to apply for.
2. The grant writers for an application will receive a recommendation at a
sudomeeting to get 50% commission for applying on sudo's behalf.
3. We organize on fundraising(a)lists.sudoroom.org , so sign up there to
discuss
That might be difficult to accomplish for some grants (we'll have to
look at individual grant's terms and conditions) but if not possible
for a certain grant, maybe we can let the grant-writer spend them on a
sudo room project of their choosing instead? Of course it should be a
project related to the kinds of things that sudo room does and should
be open/free/libre.
==Medium-Term Strategy===
1. We think that if the Omni-move-in happens, we would like to fundraise
with them together as a unit. We will wait until July 1st.
2. If the Omni falls through, then we will have a sudo space individual
fundraiser. Idea is a harmonious-hackathon / pay-what-you-can dev bootcamp
one weekend. It can be paired with this idea:
2.1 Offer to host an RSVP Dinner w/ Francisco and Liberation Food Worker
