Re: [Commons-l] Crowdfunding campaign for Rehman

Hi Theo, Thank you for your suggestion. Not too sure if I have already responded to you... Unfortunately, the computer cannot be covered by Grants, as informed by the Grants team. The camera can be sorted as public usergroup equipment. Thanks and regards, User:Rehman<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rehman> ________________________________ From: Commons-l &lt;commons-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; on behalf of Theo10011 &lt;de10011(a)gmail.com&gt; Sent: 17 July 2016 19:24 To: Wikimedia Commons Discussion List Cc: Chris Jethro Schilling; Maggie Dennis Subject: Re: [Commons-l] Crowdfunding campaign for Rehman Can't you or User: Rehman apply for one of the grants from WMF directly? This seems like something grants were set up for. It's under $2000, so should be covered under Rapid grants[1]. I'm adding a couple of staff members in Cc that might be of help, if you are interested.

If succeeded, the funds from this campaign will enable Rehman to contribute high quality content from Sri Lanka and elsewhere. You may wish to see Rehman's photo gallery [2] for some of his current photos uploaded to Commons. I'm sure that Rehman will deeply appreciate even the tiniest of donations or help with spreading the word, if anyone is willing to support the campaign.[3] [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rehman [2] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rehman/Photos [3] - https://www.generosity.com/volunteer-fundraising/a-camera-and-workstation-f… Thank you, User:Azeez _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list Commons-l@lists.wikimedia.org<mailto:Commons-l@lists.wikimedia.org> https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l
