WMF Fundraising campaign India cancelled
by Julia Brungs 08 May '21

08 May '21

Dear all, We informed you about our fundraising test back in March [1] and I just quickly wanted to follow up on this initial message. Due to the COVID 19 situation in India we have decided to not run the fundraising campaign. The campaign will happen at some stage in the future and I will be in touch with more details in plenty of time. Our thoughts are with you all and for those of you who are not aware yet, there is COVID 19 support available for Indian Wikipedia volunteers [2]. In case you have not met me yet, hi, I am Julia, the new Community Relations person in the Advancement Department. If you have any questions or comments, please do get in touch and I will help you further. All my best, Julia [1] https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimediaindia-l/2021-March/014944.ht… [2] https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimediaindia-l/2021-April/014978.ht… -- *Julia Brungs* Senior Community Relations Specialist Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/>
