Gogec’s mission statement revolves around the idea of keeping our conference free and as accessible as possible. We intend to always remain that way, but that does not mean that hosting this conference is cost-free. In the past, the organization team, consisting of almost entirely graduate students, has paid for these costs out of pocket.  As Gogec grows, so do the costs.  Any and all support will go directly to making Gogec a better conference. We are excited to announce that we are now a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, allowing you to make tax-deductible donations.
