Hi friends!
I am speaking at JSFest Oakland in December. They are paying their speakers. I am already paid by Mozilla to go speak, and we're also sponsoring, so it really doesn't make a lot of sense for me to accept this stipend. I think it would be inappropriate if I did.
I am turning my speaker fee into a sponsorship sum. If you or someone you know can't attend the event for financial reasons, I may be able to help.
Here is what you need to do:
-
Draft an email to [email protected] with [JSFest Help] in the subject. I get a lot of mail at that address, so this part if very important so I don't miss it.
-
Include in the email a paragraph about why you want to go to this event and what you expect to get out of it. Not more than 500 words.
-
Include in the email an explanation for why you need this help. Not more than 500 words.
-
Send it before 11:59 PST on October 22nd, 2014
I think I'm sufficiently entangled with the JSFest organization to not be getting paid, but I will match your contributions, Angelina.
