Money raised by this Community will be redistributed back into the Community to keep it going and pay it forward to our members. We prioritize funding our overhead and operating costs. We then use the balance to support member projects, fund community events, and invest in additional advisors, grant writers, and creators to expand our discounted technical advising services to support member projects.
We keep all bookkeeping transparent because this is a key way to build more equitable businesses and transition to a just economy. It’s also the most ethical way to operate, whether a for-profit or non-profit philanthropic entity.
FLOWLab⁵ occasionally supports member projects by processing funds and allows members to expense accordingly. We accept member projects on a case by case basis as we are not a fiscal host yet. Members sign an agreement and we proceed with a clear policy of a finite time to hold their funds (no more than 6 months).
