[Wikimedia-l] [Wikimedia Announcements] Changes at the Wikimedia Foundation Fundraising Team

[Zack Exley]

Thanks everyone - I learned and grew a lot here thanks to all of you. Now
Lisa, Megan, Sara, Katie and the whole fundraising team are going to take
it up to a whole new level of efficiency and brilliance.

I'm excited about my next gig -- not yet announced, but not a secret --
which is going back to Thoughtworks (where I was before WMF) to build and
lead a team that will make tools for grassroots/political organizing on a
pro bono basis.

If you ever see a group that's got a great campaign/movement/protest on
their hands who need some just-in-time tools, please let me know at
zackexley at gmail.com
