Hey, do you have a GoFundMe that you would like to bring attention to? Here's a thread to do that in. Tell us what it's about and drop a link to the GFM (or other similar verifiable fundraising site). It can be your own, or one you feel confident sharing. Either way, share away!

The #AirCon25 schedule is here! 63 free audio-production-for-media livestreams from 102 audio professionals: taking place from June 7th at airwiggles.com/aircon! It's been a real mission getting it all together :) If you're into #gameaudio, #audiopost then do stop by Airwiggles and tune in! 🙂
