Migrate Mailchimp newsletter to org-owned account #210

@davidemerson

Description

@davidemerson

The newsletter signup form (layouts/newsletter/section.html) submits to a personal Mailchimp account:

https://nicholasfrota.us9.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=cf667149616fd293afa115f5a&id=ebe72854f3

The nicholasfrota.us9 subdomain indicates this is tied to an individual's Mailchimp account rather than an NYC Mesh organizational account. If this person leaves the organization or loses access to their Mailchimp account, the newsletter signup would break and subscriber data could become inaccessible.

Recommended fix

  1. Create an org-owned Mailchimp account (e.g., under an nycmesh or shared team email)
  2. Export/migrate the existing subscriber list
  3. Update the form action URL in layouts/newsletter/section.html to point to the new account
