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.
