Form Fundraising WG #9

Hey @jacobian, |
|
Hi there, I open a draft PR #14 to start something, I can't tag everyone as reviewers, FYI @priyapahwa @StephanieAG @knyghty when you have some time :) |

Hi all 👋 I could commit to at least 2-4 hours/month to help the FWG, but I'm struggling with how to help right now. I know the next step is finalizing the draft PR #14 Sarah posted (thanks, Sarah!), but I'm struggling to understand how to use GitHub with other people. For context, I've only been learning Python/Django for around a year and my day job is completely unrelated to coding so I've never worked with other people on something like this, and I'm not super familiar with the tools for collaboration yet. I poked around and I will search the internet and learn more, but in the meantime I don't want to mess anything up. Anyone want to join me for a "review PR 14 co-working session" where we can review this together and someone can show me how not to make a fool of myself while collaborating on GitHub? 😜 If this appeals to anyone: what timezone are you in and when are you available? My schedule is flexible, and I'm on the East coast of the USA, so my timezone is UTC-04:00. I can set up the videoconference link. I'm thinking either 30 minutes or an hour. |

🖐🏻 I'd love to come and help as much as I can! I still haven't had a chance to review the PR in depth, but I can commit to doing so ahead of a co-working session if we get one on the books. I'm in the US-Pacific time zone (UTC-7), but don't mind early mornings to meet up with East Coast times. Generally speaking Thursday-Sundays are best -- M/Tu/W I'll usually have work conflicts during normal work hours. Not this weekend, unfortunately, so maybe towards the end of next week? |

Lovely, thank you 😁
All welcome; feel free to let us know what option/s work for you, and I can post a videoconference link after a time is determined. |
|
1/2/3 all work for me - just not the 29th. Pick whichever one you want and let's make it happen! |
|
Great, I went with 3. Link to join below; see you then! Review PR #14 Coworking Session - Django Fundraising Working Group |

Hey @StephanieAG |
|
Sure but even option 1 still seems pretty late for you (9:30pm IST), and @jacobian previously mentioned not minding early mornings, so I took the liberty of updating the time to Fri 3/22 at 8am PT / 11am ET / 8:30pm IST (one hour earlier than option 1). Obviously just let me know if that's not preferable for either of you. Review PR #14 Coworking Session - Django Fundraising Working Group |

Works for me, thanks :) |

WFM too see you then |
The Fundaising WG has been formally approved by the Board but right now it's just a placeholder. Broadly speaking we know we want to form a much larger group to work on fundraising strategy, but beyond that things are pretty open.
I'm opening this issue to track two things:
Right now (Jan 10 2024), we're essentially waiting on someone(s) to pick up and flesh out what the group does, who will be on it, etc. (See what @sarahboyce did with the Social Media WG as a template for what needs to happen.)
I'd intended on taking lead here, but likely won't get around to it for ... a few months, if not longer. So if someone else is motivated to get things moving, that'd be great, dive in! I'd be very happy to guide/mentor someone if you're interested and have time but aren't sure where to start.
