ANNOUNCEMENT: Beehaw's new fiscal host is Open Collective Europe Foundation—please renew your donations there
tl;dr: Beehaw has moved over to Open Collective Europe Foundation, please direct your donations there effective immediately.
In some good news, we’ve successfully moved over to Open Collective Europe Foundation as our new fiscal host. This process has been mercifully quick and fairly painless, for which we’re thankful.
Going forward, please make all donations to the Beehaw Collective there instead of the previous Beehaw page affiliated with Open Collective Foundation. We’ll be mothballing that one following this post going live and according to OCF should be able to merge the page back into our new one sometime after April.
Our balance of approximately $7,100 is in the process of being transferred and we do not expect issues there. OCF just submitted a transfer request today for us, and OCEF will let us know when that balance hits our new collective.
We would encourage you to manually restart your contribution as soon as possible just for sake of ease and because our financial schedule will be very different going forward. However, starting later this month—at least based on what Open Collective is saying—anybody still signed up to make contributions to the old page should receive an email with the following information:
- an invitation to renew your contributions on the new collective page
- direction to a page which will be pre-loaded with the amount and frequency of the contribution you made on the old collective, which you will then confirm
So, don’t fret too much if you can’t immediately and manually switch. Spaced email reminders should also go out until Open Collective Foundation shuts down at the end of the year. If any of this does not happen, please page us and we’ll see what’s up.
