<aside> 🌱 Reverse utilizes a portion of its profits [in agreement with the community] to donate to grassroots community projects, prioritizing climate restoration projects.

</aside>

Here's an example:

A local student is awarded money for ‘bee bombs’. The school plants a local biome to cultivate native biodiversity and pollinators, and the student educates the school on the importance of ecology (pollinators being a critical part of the natural cycle). Join our discord, chat up your effort, use social media, get volunteers, and do good.

Some of the projects completed or underway include replacing lawns with ‘biodiversity patches’, restoring our pollinators, protecting sea shore erosion, regenerating soil, and re-introducing native plants.

Tell us how your environmental initiative could help your local community and beyond.

Below are some areas we prioritize. However, ultimately it is up to the community at large where Reverse DAO will allocate funds through our proposal system.

• Environmental Education & Awareness
• Indigenous empowerment
• Regenerative agriculture
• BLS (Biodiversity, Land & Soil) Restoration & Conservation

How the grant application process works:

• The philanthropic grant treasury is funded by eco-VC project profits and controlled by the community, so funding may not always be available. An interested potential grant recipient applies for funds through our application (see below) and is matched to available funding;

• The application goes through a spam/scam check before the application is submitted as a proposal to our voting platform;
