| |
− | <s>Please look for documentation on these, especially specific wording, so they can be moved up to the official policies section.
| |
− | | |
− | * Grants are for nonprofit organization, loosely defined. A nonprofit organization does not need to be a 501(c)(3), nor even incorporated. We cannot, however, grant to organizations that we are prohibited from since we are a 501(c)(3). This applies to partisan political organizations and some other types of groups.
| |
− | * Individuals may not ask for grants, though a nonprofit can ask for a grant and pass it through to an individual. The council has directed the grants group to deprioritize pass-through grants and encourage potential recipients to investigate the adoption program.
| |
− | * Local requests take priority over distant ones.
| |
− | * Distant requests need to explain their disposal plan for the day that the granted equipment finally becomes unusable. </s>

− | Per Sophia's email on 06/26/2010 "Please remove the 'informal grants policy' section - an informal
| |
− | policy is a practice/procedure and does not need to be on the policy

| |
− | *If a customer wants to buy something that is not in the store, the store may issue them a 'hall pass' that details where they can go to look for it and what they are looking for.

| |
− | | |
− | * Volunteers in the adoption program can earn a free computer in exchange for 24 hours of work.
| |
− | * Volunteers in the build program can earn a free computer in exchange for building six computers. The sixth computer is the one they keep, and they can build it themselves.
| |
− | * Volunteers can only earn one computer per year.
| |
− | * Volunteers who cannot understand English are welcome to participate in our programs, but they must provide a translator to help them learn the job and otherwise communicate. In http://lists.freegeek.org/pipermail/core/2004-May/001855.html Laurel says:
| |
− | As we would have done in the past - require them to provide a translator. They're
| |
− | supposed to bring a translator while they work and when they come on the tour. No
| |
− | need to panic. We have just the same situation as before, no problems have been
| |
− | added (unless, of course, someone implies during the class that we would offer
| |
− | spanish-language support).
