Task #2130
closedcreate an attractive infographic showing how donations are used
0%
Description
We have some text on the donate page showing what we use the money for, but maybe we could showcase this more effectively with an infographic. It wouldn't have to be very detailed on numbers, but highlight some of the things we do (infrastructure, LibOCon, community budgets, team etc.) Alternatively, it could highlight some achievements from the previous year that were made possible thanks to donations. Some inspiration:

Setting this as Q2/2017 as it's something I could work on after my graphic design training in April.

That IMHO is something that ideally would fit into the printed annual report, what do you think?

The annual report draft at p. 8 has something like that - is that what you had in mind?

Sorry for the delayed response to this! The Annual Report has a pie chart giving a broad overview of how donations are spent, but I'm thinking of something with more detail, really encouraging people to donate by showing the benefits, like this:
http://www.lctonstage.org/wp-content/uploads/1970/01/Donation-Infographic1.jpg
So we could have something like:
"Last year your donations helped us...
- Expand our infrastructure for better reliability/security/whatever
- Hire a dedicated QA engineer to work on bug reports
- Coordinate three hackfests in X, Y and Z, to bring developers together
- Travel to X and Y to spread the word about open source and open standards
- Organise a conference in Brno with over 100 attendees"
With lots of pictures, and then a call to action to donate at the end. How does that sound?
Bumping to Q3, but I'll have proper time to work on this as soon as the 5.4 release is done.

Icons were bought, infographic finished, and promoted, eg: https://twitter.com/libreoffice/status/907226016137011200
Also, an ODG version has been shared with the l10n community for their own translations. So this is done now -- closing the ticket.
