After the discussions of the last years regarding the donations for the Wikimedia-movement a new commitee has now been founded: The Funds Dissemination Committee. Despite some exeptions (Germany, France, Switzerland) donations for the Wikimedia-movement are from now on only transacted by the Wikimedia Foundation. | |||
Organisations are however able to get money of this donations by two ways: | |||
* By a Grant, where up to tens of thousands Euros can be applied for projects. These grants are online monitored by the Grants Advisory Committee, a committee of volunteers. The transaction is done by members of the WMF. Wikimedia Austria got it's budget for this year as well as 10.000 EUR for the WikiCon 2012 by a grant. | |||
* The new Fund Dissemination Committee consists of WMF-Employees, WMF-Boardmembers and Community-members. It's only possible to ask for an annual budget there. The application period is biannual, but every organisation is only able to applicate once in a year. To applicate at the FDC it is necessary to have at least two completed grants or alternatively participated in a fundraiser. The two most recent annual and financial reports have to be presented to the FDC in english language. | |||
Thanks to the excellent work of our members the on hand reports could be translated and submitted. After the participation in 2011/12s fundraiser and our grant in 2012 this should qualify us for the FDC. Following to this over three weeks requests of WMF-employees and the FDC reached us and were answered by our team. Our application was granted with an ammount of 220.000 USD, while we applicated for 241.088 USD. The reduction was constituted with scepticism regarding the growth of our project-work and the build-up-process of our office. The decisions of the FDC are brought before the Board of the Wikimedia Foundation which decides the actual granting of funds. | |||
