DUFF

Joe Siclari, amended by Jean Weber

DUFF (the Down Under Fan Fund) helps Australasian fans to visit North American fans and Worldcons, and, on alternate trips, North American fans to return the favor. The fund was started in 1972 and continues on an approximately annual basis. Winners have come from, or visited, both Australia and New Zealand. DUFF is patterned after TAFF, with fund winners being co-administrators of the fund until the next winner on their respective continent returns from a trip. DUFF winners, like winners of other fan funds, are expected to publish a trip report.

More details about DUFF, including a full list of winners and contact information for current administrators, are available from the DUFF page at Fanac.org.
