I have never been actively involved in SoC mentoring so my suggestion
shouldn't count too much, but the SFC route sounds like a very reasonable
option to me.  Travel fund helped me a lot to attend last year's
GitTogether, and it would be very handy to have such a community fund to
cover part of costs when git people need to appear in events and
conferences for the benefit of git community as a whole.
