Hello Promo-Board, As Sandro described, there is a lot of potenzial in fundraising. I would be interested in working with you. As I live in Austria/mid-Europe my mother tongue is German. I Do English and Italian, A bit of Spain. I think I would be adopted for the marketing part, as I studied business economy and philosophy. I could work 5 hours a week for this project. My programming knowledge is not so good, but I'm ready to learn. So let me know if you are interested. For the time being, Miranda Gesendet von meinem BlackBerry 10-Smartphone.

In spite of that, we still think there are a lot of room for improvements in the way we currently carry out such campaigns and in the strategies currently adopted. We (the board) have been discussing lately about creating a fundraising working group and we agreed that's something we want to do. We made a list of potential tasks for the working group: On the technical side: * Designing content of campaign landing page * Supporting tracking progress of the campaign * Maintaining payment infrastructure * Improving data analysis * Mailing donors to get information like the address in order to send postcards On the marketing side: * Getting input from the community for and writing text for fundraising page * Producing social media content * Creating videos and other artwork * Researching and evaluating fundraising tools like matching donations and giving gifts in exchange for donations * Showcasing donation impact to donors * Coming up with fitting goodie ideas and publicity stunts in order to get attention * Mobilizing the community to help spread the word about the fundraiser and why it matters Now, it's the time when we should start looking for prospective members. If you are interested in joining the fundraising WG or have any question regarding that please don't hesitate in emailing the board (kde-ev-board at kde dot org). Of course, people experienced with fundraising are quite welcome, but also do not refrain yourself of joining the WG because of no previous experience. We've been building knowledge in this area together and getting better year by year. I'm looking forward for candidates :) Cheers, Sandro
