let’s make foc2025 break even

andras

two of the organisers of foc2025 have not only put loads of time and effort into this but have underwritten it financially and i feel thay we as a community can make sure they are not out of pocket. based on the information i got i calculated that they need 40 donations of £50 each to break even.

i’ve set up a kin coop group to collect monies, so at the same time as contributing towards the festival breaking even, this is also a chance for you to boost one of the projects presented at the festival.

thank you!

andras thanks. Is it possible to set up the links to Kin so they open in a new window? It says I'm not authorised to access the page - perhaps put a few instructions about how people access the page - e.g register on Kin etc etc (whatever the steps are). Cheers.

andras As not everybody will be in the position to access the Kin group, I suggest as an alternative to go to this page if you want to make a donation. There are different amounts available now.
And please do!

mrauchs thanknyou michel. there is a kin feature enabling contributions on someone else’s behalf. message me privately if you are keen to use that channel, i’m happy to be the middle man and contribute on your behalf.

@andras Actually even when I'm registered and logged in, my access to the FOC break even group via the link you shared is denied...

andras

Maddy sorry to hear, maddy. please try this updated link:

Yes, the link comes back as access denied. I wonder if it changes once you have set up a standing order, but it would be good if it had some information on that.

Yes, you have to be logged in to access a group page. And then you must request access to join the group. It's how we keep groups safe. A public view and share link for groups is in the pipeline.
