I also think that 6months is long --we'll probably have completed the project by then.
Maybe KDN might consider giving us a grant nonetheless, provided that it will be used in
the best interest of Wikimedia Kenya -- that is, give us some funds that will be used for
future projects.

Hi Guys,
I spoke to KDNs R&D manager regarding the Wikipedia for Schools project we have going
on and KDN's possible sponsorship of the project. The forward below is what he had to
say.
6 months seems long so I told him I'll talk to you guys first. Give me your thoughts
on this.
ps: they can also sponsor future events
regards,
Alex.

Hi Alex,
Wonderful idea! I can see a great future in the project; but until at least March next
year, KDN budgets are really tight. I really feel that we can take the project on if you
are willing to wait for around 6 months.
As for your recommendation letter, the HR is taking time to respond. Let me send her a
reminder.
Regards,
Zuhair Jaffer,
R&D Manager,
Kenya Data Networks.
