<h1>Financial Aid</h1>
<i class="icon icon-registration"></i>
</section>

<h2>The Program</h2>

<p><a href="https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2017/10/psfs-october-board-meeting.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everybody Contributes</a> is one of PyCon’s core principles. All attendees, including speakers and volunteers, have to pay for registering. While following this convention, PyCon Taiwan also has a financial aid program to help friends in the community, financially or otherwise, so more people are able join us in the big event.</p>

<p>All who look for help attending the conference are welcomed to apply. The organizers will review all applications and allocate resources based on both the conference budget and the applicants’ conditions.</p>

<p>While we hope to support everyone to participate in the community, the budget is unfortunately limited, and so is the financial aid program. In cases of insufficient resources, we wish to support those who are most in need and to maximize community gain available from the applicant’s participation. As such, we may be forced to turn down your application to prioritize others.</p>

<h2>Application How-Tos</h2>

<p>The procedure of the application is what follows:</p>

<ol>
<li>The applicant (you) enters a valid email address for contact in the <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc_zfuXTK6h9_o3uv5yjB4f5CF4G79InbFjdTJo1xCw6Z0RCQ/viewform" target="_blank" rel="noopener">form</a>.</li>
<li>Leave a brief description about yourself, and provide at least your full name.</li>
<li>The conference staff (we) will contact you to verify the information and try to learn more about you.</li>
<li>The Financial Aid Program closes on 21 June (15:30 UTC).</li>
<li>We will inform you of the results before the end of the conference registration. You will receive instructions about how to claim your aid. Please make sure to bring papers and/or proofs as appropriate to the conference for the claim process.</li>
</ol>

<p>Information for Financial Aid</p>
<ul>
<li>Eligibility: The financial aid program is open to all contributors, attendees, students, and speakers and aims to provide assistance to those who otherwise might not be able to attend the conference.</li>
<li>Allowance: In general, the support limit is up to NTD 20,000. If you need more financial aid, you are encouraged to provide more detailed information while completing the form.</li>
<li>Visa: If you need to apply for a Visitor VISA, feel free to contact us at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></li>
<li>Reimbursement: The native residents would get the funds via wire transfer, and for the foreigners, you can get the cash funds at the conference counter.</li>
<li>The Financial Aid includes conference fee, travel and accommodation expenses. (The travel and accommodation will be partly reimbursed at the actual expense, based on the results of the review.)</li>
</ul>

<h2>Some Tips on Application</h2>

<ul>
<li>Describe your interests, what you did in the Python community, and what you plan to do in the future</li>
<li>Describe why you would require additional help to attend. For example, higher transportation cost than average attendees is needed, that cause financial difficulty.</li>
<li>Describe what makes your situation unique. Say, you might represent a particular group that is not well-represented.</li>
<li>Describe how other attendees would benefit from your presence. Say, you’ll share your experience, or can help raise awareness of an issue in the community, etc.</li>
</ul>

<hr>

<p>We understand that we all have different financial situations, and contribution is difficult to quantify. As we have a limited budget, we cannot guarantee to fund all applicants. But please do let us know if you need support, and we will do our best.</p>

{% block meta_description %}如何申請 PyCon Taiwan 財務補助,讓我們協助你參與會議。{% endblock meta_description %}


{% block content %}

<section class="pill-title alt">
<h1>財務補助</h1>
<i class="icon icon-registration"></i>
</section>

<h2>方案介紹</h2>

<p><a href="https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2017/10/psfs-october-board-meeting.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everybody Contributes</a>是 PyCon 的核心價值,亦即除特邀來賓外,所有的會議參與者,包括講者與志工,皆需自己付費,方能參加會議。在維持 Everybody Contributes 此一核心價值的同時,我們也規劃了財務補助方案,希望協助對會議有興趣,但由於成本而難以參加的朋友們,能夠參與這次會議。我們採取審核制,請有需求的朋友主動與我們聯絡,我們收到所有申請後,會根據預算、申請者狀況等因素,決定是否給予補助,以及其資源多寡。</p>

<p>我們並不想對受理對象有太多硬性限制。只要有任何困難,而在熱愛 Python 之餘也願意為 Python 社群付出些什麼,就算符合申請標準。由於會議經費有限,因此能夠補助的數量不多;這種情況下我們希望受理的對象大致為「最需要被幫助的人」或「對與會者幫助最大的人」。舉例而言,若拿家庭收入欠佳的學生與已有穩定工作的工程師相比,我們會優先協助學生。更進一步,以申請者身分而言,對 Python 社群有所貢獻者,或這次會議的講者,會是我們優先協助的目標。在資源不足的狀況下,我們可能會迫使拒絕您的申請,以幫助更有需要的人。</p>

<h2>申請流程</h2>

<p>申請財務補助的方式如下:</p>

<ol>
<li>填寫<a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc_zfuXTK6h9_o3uv5yjB4f5CF4G79InbFjdTJo1xCw6Z0RCQ/viewform" target="_blank" rel="noopener">表單</a>留下聯絡方式(email)。</li>
<li>根據表單欄位填寫,內容應包含身分(真實姓名),處境與需求的說明。</li>
<li>我們會有專人與您聯絡、核對資料及了解您的狀況。</li>
<li>受理時間為即日起至 6 月 21 日 23:30 (台北時間) 截止。</li>
<li>售票期間我們會主動告知您是否能獲得補助。若申請通過,請您仔細閱讀退費的注意事項,像交通補助會需要單據證明,請保留單據並在會場交付工作人員。</li>
</ol>

<p>財務補助資訊:</p>
<ul>
<li>申請人資格:只要你有需要都可以申請,我們盡力協助讓更多人能藉由補助參與會議。</li>
<li>補助上限:原則上最高 NTD 20,000,如果需要更多的話,在填寫時需提供更詳細資訊。</li>
<li>如果需要申請台灣入境簽證,可寄信至<a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></li>
<li>領取方式:原則上本國人以匯款方式進行,外國人在會場櫃檯以現金方式領取。</li>
<li>可補助項目:門票、交通費、住宿費 (交通費與住宿費採實報實銷,補助金額依審核結果決定)</li>
</ul>

<h2>申請小技巧</h2>

<ul>
<li>描述你的興趣、在 Python 社群從事過的事情、未來期望達成的目標等。</li>
<li>描述為何需要額外協助,例如相對其他會眾需要較高成本,需要很大的旅行開銷等等。</li>
<li>描述你與大多數會眾的特殊處境。可能你住在偏遠地區、或者屬於某個社群內較少見的族群。</li>
<li>描述你能為其他會眾帶來什麼影響,例如你計畫分享自己的經驗,或者可以為某些特殊議題發聲等等。</li>
</ul>

<hr>

<p>我們知道每個人的經濟狀況皆有不同,對 Python 社群的貢獻也都難以比較。財務補助的資源有限,無法保證能幫到所有人,但我們還是想對有困難的朋友們說:「需要幫忙就說一聲吧!我們盡力!」</p>
