Extension request

edit

Is your final report due but you need more time?



Extension request

edit

New end date

edit

October 31, 2018

Rationale

edit

The initial proposal was a six months project, but we created a new strategy that involved training the WiR, creating manuals of this training, and establishing a flexible part-time job that allowed us to do more activities with the same budget.

Request approved

edit

Approving a new end date of October 31, 2018. Glad you're adapting your plan to make best use of the resources available. --Marti (WMF) (talk) 06:39, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

Also, noting here that the new final report due date is 30 November 2018. -- Best, JTud (WMF), Grants Administrator (talk) 19:00, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
