;Question One | ;Question One: There are many things that I'd like to achieve, but probably the two main ones would be to significantly increase the number of active volunteers and to reduce our financial dependency on a single funding source. To achieve the former, I would like to develop and strengthen strategies that involved more volunteers in the charity's work as an integral part of the process, and actively seek broader outreach opportunities at a local level. To achieve the latter, we need to recognise that somewhere between £1 million and £2 million is donated by UK residents to WMF during the six weeks or so of the WMF's Annual Fundraiser. Around half a million of that is then granted to WMUK, which becomes our principal source of income. I believe that WMUK needs to demonstrate its value to donors by increasing its activities at the community level. If we establish the value of WMUK to the ordinary users of Wikimedia projects, we increase the likelihood that those donors who support the Annual Fundraiser will be wiling to financially support WMUK directly throughout the year. --[[User:RexxS|RexxS]] ([[User talk:RexxS|talk]]) 13:19, 8 July 2015 (BST) | ||
