| PROCEDURES FOR MONITORING USE OF GRANT FUNDS OUTSIDE THE U.S.: | Grants to organizations: Organizations that have met each grant program's eligibility criteria are eligible to participate in a public application process. To do so, they submit a grant proposal that contains a description of the mission-related work they are proposing, a budget, a start date and completion date or duration of the grant period, and a description of how this work will achieve the Wikimedia Foundation's mission or the Wikimedia movement strategic priorities. When an applicant is awarded a grant and becomes a grantee, the grantee completes screening requirements and signs a grant agreement. The agreement stipulates that they will use grant funds for charitable purposes consistent with the Wikimedia Foundation's mission and the purposes described in the grant proposal; that they agree to the reporting requirements, including maintaining receipts/documentation of expenses for four years; that they agree to procedures for notifying the Wikimedia Foundation of important changes that may affect the grant; and that they will return any unused grant funds after the end of the grant's term. Once each grant is complete, the grantee will submit a narrative and financial report or series of reports that demonstrate how the grant funds were spent and describe the impact of the work. GRANTS TO INDIVIDUALS: GRANTS TO INDIVIDUALS FOLLOW THE SAME PROCESS AS OTHER GRANTS UNLESS THEY ARE TRAVEL SCHOLARSHIPS. INDIVIDUALS APPLY FOR TRAVEL SCHOLARSHIPS (PRIMARILY TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE, WIKIMANIA) AND APPLICATIONS ARE REVIEWED AND EITHER ACCEPTED OR DENIED. IN MOST CASES, TRAVEL IS THEN ARRANGED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL AND PAID FOR DIRECTLY BY THE WIKIMEDIA FOUNDATION. IN VERY LIMITED CASES, INDIVIDUALS BOOK TRAVEL THEMSELVES AND PROVIDE RECEIPTS TO THE FOUNDATION WHICH THEN REIMBURSES THEM BASED ON THE RECEIPTS. Additionally, the Foundation also reimburses (upon request) for other related travel expenses such as visa application costs and incidentals like meals and airport transfers. |
| Method of accounting | The grants and expenditures reported in Schedule F were based on the accrual method of accounting. |
