Funded[edit]

Dear @Timzy D'Great:,

Thank you for submitting this grant application. The Wikimedia Usergroup Nigeria community Support Fund Committee has reviewed your application and approved a partial funding of 159,000 NGN. We request that you adjust the following items on the proposal:

  • Reduce the cost of data reimbursement for each participant to 500 each and facilitators to 10,000.
  • Lastly, we request that you find a way to create a section in the program for a meetup for the Anambra Network.

We look forward to your response to adjust the budget so we can move forward with the proposal, and thank you once again for your work within the Wikimedia Movement in Nigeria.

On behalf of the WUGN Community Support Fund Committee. All the best, Ayokanmi (WUGN) (talk) 14:13, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Ayokanmi (WUGN), thank you for reaching out to me. I've adjusted the facilitators' data reimbursement to ₦10,000 as you requested. Please consider funding that of the participants at ₦1,000 each. Lastly, if we're to incorporate the meetup for the Anambra Network, that means we'd be expecting a larger number of participants and we'll eventually run out of funds. Please look into this too. Thank you.
I hope to hear from you soon. Regards, Timzy D'Great (talk) 10:46, 7 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello @Timzy D'Great:; after due consideration, we can only support the total data cost (participants and facilitators) for the event for not more than 24,000 as we have a policy of not funding more than 20% of the total budget on internet; so pls adjust. The meetup doesn't necessary means a larger crowd; we feel having the same 28 participants for the training is also enough for the meetup. Thanks and pls make the necessary adjustments so we can move on. Ayokanmi (WUGN) (talk) 11:42, 12 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Timzy D'Great:; you still need to adjust the total internet cost not to be more than 24,000 NGN. Thanks Ayokanmi (WUGN) (talk) 09:35, 16 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello @Ayokanmi (WUGN), I've done that. Timzy D'Great (talk) 09:48, 16 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
