      query: `query {
        search(type: USER, query: "location:${location} is:sponsorable", first: 100) {
          edges {
            node {
              ... on User {
                bio
                login
                viewerCanSponsor
              }
            }
          }
          userCount
        }
      }`
    }),
    headers: {
      ContentType: 'application/json',
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN}`
