Dear Chapter Leaders,

My name is Divya Narayanan and I am part of the team at The Bridgespan Group working with Wikimedia to design the Funds Dissemination Committee. We are currently working to define a process for the allocation of movement funds across the community.

We would appreciate your help in answering some questions about your chapter finances today and your thoughts on the future funds dissemination process. This information is essential to help design the FDC so that it can provide for the Wikimedia movements' current and future funding needs.

These questions can be found and answered on: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Funds_Dissemination_Committee/Chapter_Finance....

We would like all chapters to respond, regardless of budget, so we have a strong understanding of the current state and expectations for the coming financial year.

We need your input by Friday, May 25th, so that it can be considered by the Funds Dissemination Committee Advisory Group and can be used to develop recommendations for the Wikimedia Board of Trustees.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me or to Asaf Bartovmailto:abartov@wikimedia.org at the Foundation.

Many thanks,
