Hi NEAReans Greetings to the Near Community 🤗 I’m glad to report that we have been working on our two projects within the Near Venezuela Guild Thanks to the third working week we have now another +100 members on our telegram group thanks also to Near Venezuela in Valencia (one the largest cities in Venezuela). Take a look below: > **[Near blockchain en español](https://t.me/NearVenezuela)** > > Comunidad de NEAR e (aprende y saca provecho de la tecnología blockchain con NEAR) Here the last report from myself as a reply: > [@\[Approved\] Palmeros de Chacao a Cultural Heritage of Humanity](http://gov.near.org/t/approved-palmeros-de-chacao-a-cultural-heritage-of-humanity/8380/9): > > Hello fellow members of the NEAR Community I’m Luis Aponte, member and council of the Near Venezuela guild, and part of the research team in Sankore 2.0. Since this project was approved. I have been in charge of the logistic and management of this project regarding my expertise and experience, and I am doing this for Free by now. As I worked with some embassies and consulates within the programs and projects of development and support of this kind of activities, I also give my knowledge in thi… The fourth week report corresponds to the past weeks from 22th Nov to 5th Dec (we have a little delay on our because we have some restrictions due to the COVID-19 cases increase). As a new council of the guild, I’m delegating tasks to other members of my team, because we believe in our community that is necessary that everyone gets involved in NEAR so we believe in the Work Team. So, I’m deep compromised and working on this with all my heart, energy, and time. 🤗 We have 2 main projects that we are working on since the funds were received, and I was aware that we are just starting and these projects are convenient for the Guild to grow and to understand how NEAR supports different projects along with the world. That’s why @Nicolasp2 @FritzWorm@Jloc @Arturoahs and myself will not have any extra compensation/payroll from the work this first month on the #near-venezuela Guild. _That’s being said, we will proceed to report the work and activities of our 2 main projects:_ # Palmeros de Chacao - [Link](http://gov.near.org/t/approved-palmeros-de-chacao-a-cultural-heritage-of-humanity/8380) Web page: [www.palmeros.org](http://www.palmeros.org/) DAO: [https://app.astrodao.com/dao/palmeros-de-chacao.sputnik-dao.near](https://app.astrodao.com/dao/palmeros-de-chacao.sputnik-dao.near) Social Media: The Palmeros de Chacao association and tradition now are getting used to ASTRODAO, so that is amazing that we have a Cultural Human Heritage certified by UNESCO using NEAR Protocol on daily basis. _ **NEAR is near of UNESCO** _ 🚀 I visited as a part of our reviewing and checking process of the activities, the Vivarium “Los Palmeritos” where I supervised the rehabilitation of the accommodation and start to look fantastic because they did: - Eliminate the plague and mosquitos that were part of the bio ecosystem. - Different plants were planted with organization and division accordingly to the large of the plot. - Build a water tank to transport water easily. - Maintenance of the different kinds of Palms planted on this Vivarium (as a part of the preservation program) Below you will see the evidence and the photos took it by the team. > **Record** > > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/2/2883154112ff7b2633bcee9295838374d0b8914c.jpeg) > > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/0/0bb63bc24c484b3bb820338d7ea30c637bc59988.jpeg) > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/e/e3bdee155ef5d371db70cf57ee0f7e220116232e.jpeg) > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/2/228bc84db6b5a5b9d6df8c781c22d1a57c02ece9.jpeg) > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/b/b7e5a45ffeea9fd4c18ce78d4141462ab5d94255.jpeg) > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/c/c9f84a45978c2d61fcc90cc49032eb5afb15ac93.jpeg) ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/gov_near/original/2X/0/05aefc4d7a89f133f505170d4689a9d4abb8c052.jpeg) In this opportunity, we count on the participation of: **Alejandro N** : Head of General Services of the Chacao City Hall (that is the location where the tradition started) **Maria Victoria** : Coordinator of the Palmeros de Chacao **Richard Delgado** : Manager of the HQ of the Palmeros in Caracas **Julian Mostasero** : Professor of the USB and Scientific Advisor of the Project of Preservation of the Blessed Palm.

Thanks for caring @Dacha ! This are to separated projects under our supervision One goal is to help “Palmeros de Chacao”, they are deeply touched by the sponsoring and help we are (NEAR community) giving them. The project is for them to be self-sustaining as organization, and this will take around $20.000, that we plan to spend step by step. The impact will be huge, this will be a top example of how DAOs help organizations to be succesful ! By showing NEAR a green and positive climate project at the same time 🤩 The other project is to bring awareness about NEAR to people, and let them experience the smooth onboarding into crypto with the NEAR wallet sharing a drink 🍻 Please, don’t worry about the alcohol comsumption, we have bigger issues here, and NEAR is also an opportunity for people to learn about the new techs and start adding value at the same time the growth professionaly. ---

Hi @Dacha I appreciate your interest in our guild and the doubts that you may have However, I’d like to explain to you both things: NEAR VENEZUELA Guild have two projects at this moment that NEAR and his community, tools, and protocol were included into the following: 1- Palmeros de Chacao 2- CryptoBeer Both projects were approved for his launch and run out a couple of weeks ago. **1. Palmeros de Chacao** Is a tradition that was recognized by UNESCO in 2019 as a Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It doesn’t have any relationship with alcohol or any other consumption. We onboard this project with the support of NEAR to express to the world through UNESCO (that is a UN organization) that NEAR works with social and cultural projects in order to contribute to climate’s solution and to the weather global crisis. What is the tradition? Basically, prayers to the Blessed Palm that previously in the colonial time a plague whipped almost entirely Caracas and after the prayer and blessing of the palm with which they rubbed the sick, the miracle began to occur. The people started to heal. Also, the people that protect that palm, located in Avila Mountain in Caracas, are people that care - and believe me - a lot about the environment and weather. Those people don’t even drink or smoke a piece of anything. So, I guess your confusion was solved **2- Crypto Beer** In another way, one of our members has expertise in craft-brewery because it was a hobby for him and it knows deeply how the community of brewers works and engage and what are their needs and goals. So, they organized - and this is the most important thing because it means they are building communities (nothing quite easy those days) - people and craft brewer houses into one space to share and enjoy some quality time to chill out with like-minded people. And the most important thing: They are organizing those people through NEAR. Near, the functions of their wallet and every good thing that NEAR supports and gives tool, are the BRIDGE between communities to relax, enjoy it responsibly, and to invite with onboarding them to NEAR and his community. So, it doesn’t seem to me that people in that moment gathering and talking about NEAR while enjoying craft beer paying in crypto, and listening to music, looks irresponsible. However, maybe you are a little bit confused but I personally invite you to follow the social media that Crypto Beer is managing, and if you want we can set a call to explain to you further what is all about. If there is any other doubt that may arise, don’t hesitate to contact me or any of my other guild members. Best Luis Aponte ---
