Not eligible

Hello @Ballardmaize, thanks for submitting your grant proposal for SheSaid 2023 in the Philippines. Unfortunately, we cannot move forward with your grant request because you are currently not eligible for the Rapid Fund program.

Currently, you hold a leadership position at one or more Wikimedia affiliates. Wiki Advocates Philippines User Group, where you are the executive director, also has an ongoing General Support Fund. Per the Rapid Fund criteria, board members, executive directors, and other paid staff or contractors of Wikimedia affiliates with existing Wikimedia Foundation Fund awards (General Support Fund, Research Fund, etc.) are not eligible for individual grant requests.

This means that you cannot apply for individual grant requests as long as you hold these positions or Wiki Advocates Philippines User Group has a General Support Fund. If you want to run any projects and need funding, they should be a part of the Wiki Advocates Philippines User Group General Support Fund.

I marked your grant request as 'Not funded' and sent an email with a similar note. All the best, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 11:51, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
