*Hi all,
I’m pleased to announce the launch of a new grantmaking program at the
Wikimedia Foundation: Individual Engagement Grants. These grants will
support Wikimedians as individuals or small teams to complete projects that
benefit the Wikimedia movement, lead to online impact, and serve the
mission, community, and strategic priorities. This new program is intended
to complement WMF’s other grantmaking programs as well as the grants that
chapters and affiliate organizations provide.
The first round of proposals will be accepted from now until 15 February
2013. We’re also seeking committee members to help select the first round
of grantees. Please help spread the word to other lists!
To get involved, share your thoughts, submit a proposal, or join the
committee:

Best wishes,*
