Agenda
- Changes to agenda
- 2019 Partner and Supporter Fundraising call
- Review sample documents in Google Drive
- Can we, effectively, repeat the thrust of the Spring letter?
- If so, what are the Samvera Community achievements, and needs, that we should highlight?
- Would we want to add anything about a wider fundraising call later in the year? And/or: How might we encourage these folks to contribute more. FYI: this call goes to all the Partners (not just those who actually contribute funds) and to a couple of non-Partners who regularly contribute.
- Sponsorship for Samvera Connect
- Review examples of other sponsorship schemes
- Should Connect seek sponsors?
- If so, brainstorm initial list of organizations that we might target
- How would we "sell it to them". (What would they get for their money beyond "feeling good"?)
- Large-scale fundraising
- Brainstorm an initial list of people we think we might approach
- How would we "sell it to them". (What would they get for their money beyond "feeling good"?)
- Does the 1% open source funding model have any leverage? https://www.ericholscher.com/blog/2018/mar/9/one-percent-for-open-source/
- How might we develop a contributory model from service providers?
- Date of next meeting
- Wednesday January 9th. 08:30PT, 11:30ET, 16:30UK
- After 9th January set up a Doodle poll to agree future dates
