Dear Wikimedia Community:
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations to the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees on how to allocate movement funds to best meet Wikimedia goals and strategic priorities. The Wikimedia Foundation has now published a list of 2013-2014 Round 2 Annual Plan Grant eligible entitieshttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/FDC_portal/Eligibility_checklist/2013-2014_round2 based the eligibility criteria established in the Funds Dissemination Committee framework. Please let us know if you believe there are any corrections to be made to this list.
The six organizations that submitted Letters of Intent for Round 2 2013-2014 are categorized in the 'Yes', category based the eligibility criteriahttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/FDC_portal/Eligibility_criteria, and are now eligible to submit proposals in this round. Organizations must continue to remain eligible throughout the FDC process in order to receive funding.
All proposals created by eligible organizations for Annual Plan Grantshttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Information from the FDC must be submitted by *1 April 2014* through each organization's proposal hub page that was created when each organization submitted an LOI for this round. A list of hub pages for all proposals in this round may be found herehttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Proposals .
Please note that we are using the new dates announced by Anasuya Sengupta in her email to the community.
One final note: organizations that prefer not to participate in the FDC process in this round may be eligible to seek funding through the Project and Event Grants Program http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:PEG.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to me and the FDC support team ( FDCSupport@wikimedia.org) with any questions or requests for clarification.
Sincerely;
Garfield Byrd Chief of Finance and Administration Wikimedia Foundation
