    Hello Monal, Chin and Viliame. My name is Jonathan O'Donnell and I study crowdfunding in academia. I'm giving a talk soon and would like to use your project as an example. At the start of the talk, I will make a donation to your project to demonstrate how academic crowdfunding works. Is that OK with you? In the lead up to the talk, you will see me make small donations (A$1 each time). This is me practicing my talk. Then I'll make a regular donation (about A$20 or A$50) at the start of the talk. It would be a great help to me if I could do this. I'm focusing on Australian universities, and because Monal has a position at University of the Sunshine Coast, this means that your campaign is within the scope of my project. There aren't many researchers in Australia doing this right now, so I'd love to use your project as my example. You can see details of my talk here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/crowdfunding-at-australian-universities-registration-263573785287 I can be contacted at: jonathan.odonnell@unimelb.edu.au Any assistance greatly appreciated. Jonathan
