For various reasons not entirely unconnected with my failing health, we are looking to take on some employees for a couple of dull, but worthy specific tasks. Now, as anyone who knows the CFZ will attest, we have no money. However, I believe that there are charitable trusts out there to whom one can apply for grants for such things, and as we are a company limited by guarantee, and the aims of these specific projects (having the entire CFZ archives online) is most definitely for the public good and in the public interest, I see no reason why we should not be eligible for said grants.
The sticking point is that I am not terribly good at this stuff. Out of the 3,000 or so people who read the CFZ bloggo, are any of you charity fundraisers, or something like that who could point us in the right direction, and help us along the path?
Have a look at Kickstarter
