Expense policies
Artworkers for Palestine Scotland (AW4PS) raises donations to support their action and remove barriers for AW4PS members to be involved in the campaign. In order for AW4PS finances to be transparent and collaborative, finances are held by fiscal host The Social Nest within an Open Collective account. A small group of AW4PS members support the administration of the expenses process outlined below. 

Expenses will be covered for costs which benefit access; remove barriers to participation and prioritise wellbeing, inclusion, and safety for AW4PS members, as well as for basic material expenses to enable the groups activities and actions. 

Expenses will only be paid if there is enough income to cover the expenses within the collective. 
Any large donation amounts raised resulting in unused money will be donated to Palestine Aid organisations, as reviewed by the group.

What can be claimed (for example and non-exhaustively):

-Travel to and from actions and meetings for BIPOC, disabled people, low income, precariously employed, unemployed. 
-Flyer printing (if can’t be sourced for free)
-Acquiring Action+ protest equipment (that can’t be borrowed easily) example: a megaphone.
-Access requirements for meetings (ex. BSL interpreters, live captioning, childcare)
-Venue hire for public events (when it’s not possible to get one for free) 
-Materials for workshops (such as Kids & YP Group, when they can’t be found for free)
-Snacks/hot drinks for meetings & workshops (donations can also be collected at public events to help cover costs)

In order for AW4PS to prioritise members requests for access, participation and inclusion, we encourage members to be resourceful and where possible to keep spending related to action low, in particular relating to costs for events/equipment required. AW4PS can provide members a list of resources in our community that may be able to support AW4PS action at low to no cost. 

How to claim your expense:

AW4PS requires formal pre-approval for all expenses. Please email [email protected] BEFORE incurring any reimbursable expenses. In line with the full transparency of AW4PS, the available budget, all financial (other than incognito) contributions and expenses reimbursed can be viewed at the Open Collective account here.

Open Collective requires that you must upload a valid receipt or invoice clearly showing the total amount, date, legal address, and what the payment is for. 
Information listed publicly on the collective page will be: the given name, and the content you put in the description category. Please do not include information you wish to remain confidential in that text box.

Please include an email or some other way that we can contact you and follow up about the request if needed. Requests will be collectively reviewed on a weekly basis. It is our aim to fulfil all requests however as we negotiate the range of community needs so you may be asked to wait for your request to be returned. 

You can check in with the finance support team via email if you need to discuss your expenses request.
