we actually have this from last year: Astro
But we shouldn’t do it like this. Because Claudia Peter, a burner from the community, is doing the SAVE THE CLAN initiative, not AfrikaBurn as an organisation. And due to their Non-Profit-Organisation guidelines we are not allowed to use their name.
Therefore I am gonna open now a new DAO with my private NEAR wallet. Is that allowed?
I will call the DAO “Save The Clan for AfrikaBurn” and then make a council group as well as a member group. ok?
Yes you are partly right
It was 3000 USD that was agreed with Yessin - for the work I did from June to December, because I worked 4 days a week only for Save The Clan. Most of the work I did voluntarily because I love AfrikaBurn so much and the 3000 USD was a deal with Caro and Yessin who agreed to pay that as a “salary” for my work last year.
But what I did wrong last year was, that we called the DAO AfrikaBurn and that we used their near wallet. AfrikaBurns principles and company guidelines require that the Save The Clan initiative is independent from the organisation.
Therefore we would need to open a new DAO called SAVE THE CLAN and handle it through my account. The work I listed above is the work that has been done already in 2022 and will be done for the next 6 months.
I’d like to set up the DAO with you, if you like the idea and the project. Would you like to have call first or should I open the DAO and add you 2 as councils? Let me know what you prefer.
It previously has been funded by the community squad. Given the strong marketing component I suggested the marketing vertical. Creatives DAO funds projects with a strong creative component and also on a monthly basis, not for 6 months upfront.
Therefore I linked you @David_NEAR as well to see if marketing or community would be an option again.
what would the next step be? You can let me know @David_NEAR if you need more information from my side or if I have to get in contact with someone else?
Can the @marketingdao-council maybe help?
I started the initiative SAVE THE CLAN: afrikaburn.mintbase1.near - Mintbase Store
We have 3 different NFT stores (music, art, collectibles) and I do quite a lot of onboarding (Artists, Investors) and handle all the marketing communication as well as social media (see list above).
@tabear and @marianeu thought it would be best to approach you for the grant. In the past it was Creative DAO and now the focus is more on marketing. And that is why we reached out to you.
I listed all the activities, including working hours, etc. in the beginning of this thread.
Would be very happy to keep on going with that initiative. I love to combine art, the green blockchain and create a win-win for all involved parties.
