Thanks Nabin ji and team,
Dear Ganesh ji, Ram Joshi ji, can you also please update the meta wiki for the activity that you had proposed for re-allocation as well. Also, can we have a *face-to-face* meeting this weekend to final the thing. How about Saturday afternoon? With kind regards,

Hi Nabin,
Thanks. I was not clear that there might still be another reallocation request. I would suggest that the group decides on how to reallocate *all* of the remaining funds so we can close this grant report. Do you think this is possible soon?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your confirmation on reallocation of the remaining grant amount for the proposal I prepared.
I as a coordinator of WLE-2014 and a organizing committee member of WLM-2014 I presented the aforementioned grant proposal to reward the winners of WLE and WLM after discussion with the community.
I want to leave it to our team members to present their proposal , if any, so that it can be easier to reallocate the remaining grant amount at the earliest.
Looking forward to be able to closing this off soon.

Hi Nabin,
Thanks for the clarification. I am still calculating a different number for the unspent funds.
When the grant report was submitted, there was was 394,932.05 in unspent funds. I approved reallocating 50,000 for the anniversary event and 49,946 for stickers on 4 June 2014. This reallocation request is for 144,100. That means the total reallocation requests come to 244,046. You should still have 150,866.05 remaining to return or reallocate.
*Remaining funds = 394,932.05*
*Reallocation #1* Anniversary celebrations = 50,000 Stickers = 49,946 Subtotal = 99,946
*Reallocation #2* Subtotal = 144,100
*Total Reallocations = 244,046*
*Remaining funds = 394,932.05 - 244,046 = 150,886.05*
Please confirm.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your quick respond. With respect to your queries as follow:
- Since this is a request and report in one, can you please send me
the documentation of expenses (scanned receipts)? The report we presented here https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants_talk:PEG/User:Ganesh_Paudel_-_Wikipedia_Expansion_Program_in_Nepal/Report#Reallocation_Request_for_WLE-14_and_WLM-14_rewards is of already conducted event. The whole amount of money to conduct the event have been contributed by our team members*(named: Nirmal Dulal, Saroj Dhakal, Sangam Gurung, Krish Dulal, Nabin Sapkota and Biplab Anand)*. So, it's a zero cost event for WMF.
And the request we presented is a estimation of the reward ceremony for the winners of WLE-2014 and WLM-2014 which is totally unspent amount. Be sure we'll send you the documentation of expenses (scanned receipts) once we're done.
Thanks, Nabin

Hi Nabin,
Thanks so much for the reallocation request. It all looks good. A couple of questions:
- Since this is a request and report in one, can you please send me
the documentation of expenses (scanned receipts)?
- The grant had NPR 394,932.05 remaining. With this reallocation,
there should now be NPR 250,832.05 remaining unspent. Do you plan on submitting a grant request for these funds soon or returning them?
Thanks,
Alex
