[PROPOSAL] Kin DAO Onboarding Funding

Proponent: Kin DAO

NEAR account for payment: thekindao.sputnik-dao.near

Project Timeline: January 2022

Project: Kin DAO Onboarding

Last month alone we onboarded over 30 wallets to NEAR and introduced even more people. After hosting our first two educational onboarding courses that had over 10 attendees (whom were influential community organizers in close relation to our work) we realized we needed to distill our curriculum. The onboarding resources currently available on NEAR and other platforms are not sufficient for the communities we are working with. Most of what is available requires at least some level of understanding of the blockchain. We are working with majority people who have had no exposure to blockchain and need to be walked slowly, step by step into this world using non tech language and heart centered intention and patience. We’re not leaving anyone behind. To accomplish this well we must curate a thorough curriculum to offer newcomers. While we create this curriculum we will also be keeping up with our community to onboard them onto NEAR. We have been doing this mostly one on one totaling over 50hrs in December. We are asking that you grant us the stability and support to;

  • $1000 - Curate a thoughtful curriculum that allows brand new members to understand and maneuver within the blockchain world [deep research done by our council on what major topics need to be discussed, what our community needs from us, how to simplify the information, sourcing information, creating infographics & slideshows]
  • $1000 - Onboard new community members [one on one education to blockchain understandings, funding of NEAR wallets]
  • $300 - Creating 1-3 educational youtube videos for our Kin DAO Youtube

Total: $2300 in NEAR

We would love to possibly collaborate with the Onboarding DAO in the endeavor if they are interested!

Hi there!

Apologies for the late reply here.

We do not have an exact number of members we will onboard as it depends on who follows through. Last month we onboarded 30+ so I will conservatively say for January between 15-30 people.

The curriculum will be held live in zoom workshops once it is completed and we are happy to offer these workshops to the NEAR Community, although many who are already here probably already know much of what is taught as this curriculum is very distilled for folks who do not understand the blockchain. We are also open to creating more advanced curriculum in the future that live on different platforms that is more curated for NEAR community as we grow and learn!

And you are welcome, thanks so much for the patience and guidance!
