It’s been a handful of months now, so we just wanted to check-in and give everyone a heads up on how our Open Collective Crowdfunding Campaign went.
First and foremost, we wanted to give a tremendous thank you to everyone who helped out on this project. A good amount of work went into this campaign, and everyone’s attention, feedback, and support on the forum and beyond really helped bring this campaign to life.
Over the course of this campaign, we raised €4,044 (about $4,254) in donations, and Resonate was also able to raise over €5,243 (about $5,516) from listener memberships & supporter shares through our website. In total, that’s over €9,287 (about $9,770)!
Resonate workers have been able to use this support to do some crucial behind the scenes work to set ourselves up for the next stage of building Resonate.
This work includes:
-
Finally moving a strong portion of our core infrastructure off of WordPress and onto our own servers.
- This has been several years in the making, so thank you all so much for helping make this happen!
-
Taking a moment to evaluate our cooperative, our goals, our operating plan, and the team members we need to help us build for the future.
-
Moving most of our codebase over to The Resonate GitHub so others can easily tap into the Resonate API to start working on projects of their own, and improve projects that are currently in progress.
