A few hours ago I received an email that the Open Collective Foundation is dissolving at the end of this year, with new donations no longer being accepted by mid March.
This is an absolute disaster for our work at npub1lmj87s02ggyvxe4ak5usmr2luut8s8cr69kxgmzarglu7shtw4wsyzmrtx (npub1lmj…mrtx), which has been fiscally hosted by OCF for many years now. Now we have to incorporate as an independent 501(c)(3) or find another fiscal host, move to another platform to accept donations, and deal with losing all our current regular donors. I predict a lot of lawyer time in my future.
What a headache 😭
