<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">Dear Veni, dear all,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">Many thanks for your comments and suggestions.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">Over the years, the main feedback we have received from Chapters is that they would like to receive their Admin Funding in the first part of the year to be able to carry out their plans. So far, 88 Chapters have successfully submitted their
applications for 2020. An additional reason for the 30 June deadline for the Admin Funding programme is indeed linked to budgeting cycles and the fact that it is difficult to reserve such a large amount of money until the end of the year without knowing how
many Chapters will eventually apply. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">However, we kindly ask those Chapters facing issues linked to the unusual circumstances the world is facing this year to contact me (Stine Philipsen) directly at <<a href="mailto:philipsen@isoc.org" target="_blank" rel=" noopener noreferrer" >philipsen@isoc.org</a>>
by 15 July, so we can discuss potential solutions.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">Thanks again, appreciate your collaboration.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">ISOC Pakistan Islamabad Chapter supports your stance and reiterates that many of the chapters (including ours) are not legally registered because of several reasons such as country laws, legal opinions, internal consensus, sluggish Government
processes especially after COVID-19 lockdowns. If our chapter does manage to open a bank account till 30 June despite all efforts, we will still not be able to get funds until next year. That's bad for motivation.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">In my opinion, ISOC can handle this matter in one of the following ways:</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">A. Receive funding requests throughout the year and disburse funds accordingly.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">B. Open multiple rounds of funding, if there is a constraint to close budget by mid-year.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">C. Remove the deadline for chapters who are in the process of legal registration in their respective countries/areas. </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal_mr_css_attr">D. Receive request for admin funding from all chapters for next year, but do not disburse funds until bank account is open in the name of the chapter. </p>

Perhaps some of you (all of you?) have received a reminder that today is the deadline for applying for chapter admin funding. If you haven't, now you have :)
<br>
<br>
But, on a more serious note, have you wondered why there's a deadline for applying for admin funding, and it's end of June? Perhaps ISOC could reconsider this, and lift the deadline for admin funding, so that chapters can apply throughout the whole year?
