[PROPOSAL] RC-DAO July, August and September Budget

FUNDS REQUEST.

Regional communities are essential to the NEAR Ecosystem because they allow local developers, builders, and enthusiasts to connect and collaborate. These communities help to foster a sense of community and belonging, and they can also be an excellent resource for learning about the NEAR Ecosystem and getting involved in the ecosystem.

Regional communities also play an essential role in helping to spread the word about the NEAR Ecosystem and its potential. By organising events, meetups, and hackathons, regional communities can help to introduce new people to the NEAR Ecosystem and its benefits.

Overall, regional communities are an essential part of the NEAR Ecosystem ecosystem. They help to build a strong and vibrant community around the protocol, and they play a crucial role in spreading the word about NEAR and its potential.

The Regional Community Working Group, as a part of the Marketing DAO constellation (NDC v0) , has been able to achieve a milestone, as mentioned in this post [REPORT] RCWG Reports for April-June

Given the number of communities we have under the RC-DAO (REGIONAL COMMUNITIES TRACKING SHEET - Google Sheets ) so far and focusing on these (RC-DAO KPIs - Google Docs ) activities as what can be funded, we propose a $30K Monthly fund from the Marketing DAO, which serves as the significant support at this time for the RC-DAO until V1 of the DAO comes live.

Hi, can you tell us more about what you are doing to do for Education Purpose and BOS component because around 20k $ is a big budget for this kind of things.

Moreover, i suppose Yen is already paid by NDC Mods why he got 1500$ every Month for RC-DAO ?

What are your KPI ?

If you read correctly, the requested funds are for Regional Communities. This is the total funds that RC-DAO will be distributing to Communities.

Know that Yuen is an Admin, and his roles with RC-DAO are different.

I won’t be asking for remunerations for the admin work ill be doing for the RCWG during Q3 since I’ve 2 roles in the NDC which are GWG master scheduler and RCWG admin. I’ll be working for free during the Q3 term as an admin in the RCWG while helping the RCWG community and with their processes.

Thanks for clarification. Your funds will be issued to RCs then.

@marketingdao-council @Dacha we have corrected the proposal by adding @Yuen’s supposed renumeration to the BOS community building section.

Thank you, this is why i asked.
