Dear all,
As you know, over the last few months I’ve been learning about the work of the organizations we fund through the many grantmaking programs here at WMF. I’ve been particularly focusing on the impact evaluations that have been done on WMF grants with the first round of Impact Reports. [1] I expect I will learn more from you all in the coming months, and I will be creating opportunities to do so.
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Advisory Group met this past May to review the first years of the FDC’s grantmaking through the Annual Plan Grants program. I want to thank them for their thoughtful recommendations. [2]
With the Board of Trustees, I’ve carefully reviewed the Advisory Group recommendations, in order to understand our successes and our challenges. I would like to outline my current view of our capabilities and our opportunities, and I am now publishing my response to these recommendations on Meta. [3] Please post questions and comments on the Talk page of that document. [4]
I would like to offer some time for any feedback or questions you may have on my response. To that end, I’ll be holding a virtual meeting on Monday Nov 3 at 17:00 UTC, and I invite you to watch the streaming video and join the conversation. [5] You can ask questions via IRC on #wikimedia-office directly or message FDC support staff, Katy Love (klove@wikimedia.org or on IRC at Katy.Love) with questions or comments; she will voice them in the Hangout.
I look forward to speaking with you soon.
Lila Tretikov
Executive Director, WMF
Hi Lila,
I’m afraid that your footnote links didn’t make it through to the list…
Will you also be replying to the FDC’s comments about the WMF’s budget proposal earlier this year?
Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike, would you like to post your questions on the talk page? A collection of questions and comments are accumulating there.
I would encourage my fellow community budgeteers and strategists to comment also.
