Re: [Marketing] [IAEP] Motion: Solicit Membership Donations + Public Statements
Handing over marketing to anyone with a deep pocket is incomprehensible to me, I'd much rather just see "gold sponsor status" or something similar. Do people really need the recognition? I'm also confused about the public statement bit - don't we already have member pages? Important contributions are made by members who already donate their time and would perhaps prefer not to donate funds too, do they get to do a public statement? Social media offers a very effective means for microdonation fundraising drives, and we haven't done that yet. As I understand it, this is more like voluntary membership dues - a fundraising drive (which would be associated with a tangible goal, e.g. an alternate hardware platform) would be separate. In my view, requesting conditions or offering perks shouldn't be associated with voluntary membership dues. I'd prefer the following: Motion: To request donations from Sugar Labs Members, to be allocated to the General Fund through the SFC. The annual donation requested will be $12 USD from members who self-identify as low-income (such as students); $36, $120, or $600 USD from general members.
