Guild Vision/Mission
Caring is the act of the heart to support others with of love. Care is what Afrika Burn needs now to survive. Sustainability is the only thing that can ensure the survival of this cultural gathering. Without financial support, Afrika Burn is in existential danger and timely gathering is harder to accomplish.
This magical place of gathering has gifted unconditionally over the years with an indescribable abundance, without ever seeking anything in return.
And that’s why it is our turn to give something back!
Let’s build a sustainable passive income for Afrika Burn.
Guild Tasks - Education
- Coordinating and briefing the One Pager “Why is NEAR Protocol a green blockchain?”
- Explaining how to buy NEAR (example: Binance, Kraken, etc.) and to transfer to the NEAR Wallet
- coordinating and briefing for the documentation “For beginners”
what is a blockchain? what is a crypto? what does a “block” mean? what is it compared to the real world? how can I use a blockchain as a person? what is a miner exactly doing? is there always a miner (in every blockchain)? What is Proof of Stake? What is Proof of Work? What is a smart contract? - coordinating and help writing the documentation “Q&A”
“Why should I invest in an NFT?”
what is my advantage? taxes? whatelse? People ask me a lot “why should someone buy a painting that he won’t put on the wall in his home?” or "why does someone buy virtual land if he can’t really live there? “only to see the paintings on the computer?” “Where do the original of the artpieces go”? “Do I need to send the digital artpiece to the buyer?” “What is the buyer doing with the artpiece?” - Schooling of people about the advantage of an NFT is, why they should invest
- Schooling of people about mintbase and NEAR in General

GUILD Request - Budget
I would love to do most of the work on a volunteer basis because i am a “Burner from the bottom of my heart” and it was my intention to give something back to those people who organised the Burn in the past and of course to the nature.
Since i started the project the initiative turned bigger and bigger which made us happy but at the same time the ressources were not available to do more.
In the beginning, in July i worked maybe 1-2hours a day, in August maybe 3, in September 6h a day and since October every day 8h.
June-July: 20h (Concept-Phase)
August: 40h (Implementation Phase)
September: 130h (Onboarding, Education, Administration, etc.)
Ocotober (until 06.10.2021): 20h
October - December: estimated 90h (marketing plan, marketing implementation, coordinating with afrika burn)
Therefore I talked to Yessin about the budget.
Part of my work I still want to do as a volunteer because it makes me happy to do it.
The other part I would love to have budget for my tasks and the things I already did since July and will do until the end of the year (November, December only social media marketing activities)
Budget: 3000 USD in NEAR (USD for the whole period July-December)
The tasks that are paid through another community you’ll find here: AfrikaBurn "Save the Clan" NFT Fundraising Project
The tasks above are/were my tasks for which i didn’t for money yet.
(for future climate projects i will organise a guild from the beginning and include the task-budget)
