  1. Welcome and introductions

  2. Changes to agenda

  3. Charter
    1. Is the overall description acceptable?
    2. Is the timeframe for the deliverables realistic?
      1. February 28th 2019:  Recommendations, including suggested texts, for an approach to 2019's fundraising amongst Samvera Partners and Supporters, complementary to a wider fundraising effort.  If practicable, an interim, or draft, report by January 23rd would be helpful for consideration at the Samvera Steering Group Winter Retreat.
      2. March 31st, 2019:  Report on the desirability of Sponsorship for Samvera Connect and, if appropriate, practical approaches to attracting it (the timing is in order to inform the Connect 2019 planning process)
      3. Partner meeting April 2019:  Interim report for feedback outlining the likely recommendations for a wide fundraising effort
      4. June 30, 2019:  Final, integrated report combining all the above into an annual cycle.

  4. Membership:  Given our brief, are there any other individuals we feel it would be useful to ask to join us?

  5. Immediate tasks

  6. Date of next call
    1. What day(s) are best for people?
    2. Dates for the next two or three calls?
      1. FYI: Richard is away 11-19 December but probably he or Jon should be part of the next call having experience of Partner fundraising over the last few years?


 

NOTES (Ryan):

-whatever goes out in the fundraising call - compatible with broader fundraising effort, wording in emails doesn't cross work of others

-there is a newly minted contribution WG and a marketing WG

-need to have something in place by February as DuraSpace starts their outreach

-by End of January - Steering is the 24th or 25th - doesn't need to be a formal report (can possibly just tell them where we're at)

-March 31 - actively seek sponsorship for Connect conferences - challenge of who is trying to sponsor

Partner meeting in April - have most of the work done and ready to recommend as a draft document

Do we want rolling feedback?  Sufficient to put out a summary email after each call?  Invite comment.  May want to work toward interim and take comment in one go.

We need to be bringing in $500K/ annually - to pay for expenses

DLF October 13th-17th, so Connect will likely not be in October

Is there anyone else we could possibly bring in?  - anyone with fundraising experience?
