In January 2020, the Samvera Partners voted to adopt a new Contribution Model which sets minimum financial contribution levels for Partners, to be phased in over a period of 2½ years. These financial contributions will be used in support of common community needs and to hire central coordinating staff, starting with a Community Manager and eventually a Technical Manager if and when funding allows.
In this context, Steering has formed the Samvera 2020 Fundraising Team (FT) to oversee and carry out fundraising activities for the Samvera Community during calendar year 2020, including the following:
The work of the FT builds on the work last year of the Samvera Fundraising Working Group and Contribution Model Working Group and touches on the work of the Samvera Marketing Working Group and potentially others. It is expected that the FT will liaise with Samvera WGs and Steering as appropriate.
The team should consult the October 2019 Fundraising Working Group Final Report and other artifacts of 2019 fundraising activities as needed.
The team is will review its charter, membership and on-going tasks early in 2021, prior to the new year’s fundraising cycle.
General communications from the FT will take place through the Samvera Community mailing list.
Meetings will ideally take place at 08:00PT, 11:00ET, 16:00GMT to accommodate the eight hour time zone span.
