As much as we’d like to partake in the noble endeavor of creating opportunities for the community, it all boils down to one thing: money. Or more specifically, the acquisition of resources.  Without a venue, where will the event happen? Without speakers, where will you get content? Without marketing, how will you get participants?

This is my take on recording what I’ve learned so far in my four years of community building in the Philippines. As I grow, I hope for this blogpost to evolve and become a source of collaboration between local community buidlers and help give sprouting communities a kickstart to their efforts.
