Espero con ansias que los voluntarios puedan disfrutar de las sinergías que este evento crea; que disfrute de conocer otros wikipedistas, activistas y gente que tiene objetivos similares en diferentes partes del mundo. Este grant permitirá que esto sea más sencillo y aumentará el alcance de nuestras actividades. -- alhen ^{Did you call?} 16:11, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
