Hello Jessica,

Thank for your answer and support.
I think we are ok in funding.
However we do plan to request a grant of some sort to travel to some towns
in the country were people have requested talks from our part.
As for meetup.com we have discussed the possibility and that's a tool that
is used very little here in Dominican Republic. However we do plan to add
that in the future.

We'll make a formal request when we think it's necessary, regards.
