Hi everyone,
I am a Brazilian monument conservator, who lives in Germany. Recently I joined Wikimedia and as a member of the Project Let's go digital, Beuron Art https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:F%C3%B6rderung/Let%27s_go_digital,_Beuron_Art, I am photographing German murals outside Germany and writing new articles about Churches with this style of mural painting.
I identified that in Rio de Janeiro there is a chapel with extremely rare frescoes in this style, which is abandoned and in need of restoration. It so happens that the *US Embassy in Brazil* has a call for funding https://br.usembassy.gov/embassy-consulates/grants-corner/call-for-proposals-for-the-afcp/ for restoration projects. At the request of the chapel owner, I wrote a pro bono project to submit for this funding. :)
However, a *non-profit* *international institution* or *organization* is required to be the *legal candidate* for this project at the *US embassy *in Brazil*.* *No financial assistance is required,* but support from a non-profit institution. Can anyone with experience in this area suggest any institutions? Could Wikimedia Deutschland e.V through WikiLovesMonuments support us?
Best Regards, Carolina Bayer

Hi Carolina,
Have you considered reaching out to Wiki Movimento Brasil https://wmnobrasil.org/, or would they not meet the requirements?
Best, Ciell

Hi Carolina, The team of Wiki Loves Monuments international is a group of volunteers, it seems unlikely that we could be the kind of non-profit international institution or organization the embassy asks for. As Ciell wrote the Wikimedia Brazil User Group might be interested to help. I could not find out if Wikimedia Deutschland may be interested, but you could write to community@wikimedia.de and should get directed to the right person then.
Kind regards, Manfred

Hi Ciell,
Thank you for the advice! To be honest, I haven't considered the Wiki Monumento Brasil yet. But I will contact them.
Best regards, Carolina

Hi Carolina, WMB sounds like a great idea if it works out. Another possible way to go is to see if you can contact Kiwix as they offer their service as a fiscal sponsor. You can look at their presentation[1] from last Wikimania complete with recording[2], slides[3] and notes[4] and see if it's something for you.

Dear Axel, These suggestions are very good! I am grateful for your attention and for sending these materials. As I'm new to Wikimedia, and I'm still understanding how it works and how I can contribute as a volunteer. So sorry for the overposting. 😅
Best, Carolina
