This is the first time I’ve used the fund myself (my previous employer paid my way and sponsored events, but I was not employed while speaking at this event), but I never witnessed nepotism in the process when I was on the Community Council (CC). Reports by the community team are released about applicants and specifically what the money is used for, and I haven’t heard any complaints from people saying they’ve been refused funding.

If you have specific knowledge of requests being denied to community members it’s definitely something to bring up with the CC.

Is that fair and equitable?
