Less than 24 hours to go: last chance to donate to our Gitcoin grant! ⏰

Less than 24 hours to go: Donate and send a Fellow to DWeb Camp

We have less than 24 hours left (until 4pm PT today, June 23) to get donations to our Gitcoin grant matched! Make a small donation through Gitcoin and help bring more DWeb Fellows to Camp, through Gitcoin’s quadratic funding. 

Building a truly decentralized Web requires supporting those who work with and for under-resourced communities. That’s why we created the DWeb Fellows program. Our Fellowship program supports people who are not only imagining a better web but are building it — for and alongside marginalized populations. 

Your donation to this grant will go directly towards paying the cost of travel, accommodations, and Camp registration for DWeb Fellows from around the world. Quadratic funding rewards the number of community members who give, along with the amount. So many small donations can really have an enormous impact.

FUND DWEB FELLOWS

HOW TO DONATE:

  1. First you’ll need to create or log in your Github account. 

  2. Use that account to authorize in to Gitcoin.  

  3. Choose  our gitcoin grant here:  DWeb Camp Fellowships

  4. You’ll need a crypto wallet like Metamask or Rainbow Wallet with some Ethereum or other tokens.

  5. Select how much you want to donate. (For example: .003 ETH = about $5.00 US)

  6. Do you want to also add some money to the matching pool? Be sure to set an amount in that field as well.

  7. Hit the “I’m Ready to Checkout” button.

  8. In the Drop Down, pick Standard Checkout, Polygon or zkSync.

  9. Connect and log in to your crypto wallet to pay.

  10. You can build trust by verifying your identity by creating a Gitcoin Passport to maximize the matching funds (up to 150%).

  11. The more people who give, the greater the percentage of the matching pool we receive.
