Benefits: We do lots of good, improve the perception/reach of the Doodles brand/community (~1 million Twitter audience), and gain learnings to direct future Doodles charity efforts.
Premise: A fellow Dood ( @Explorer Doodles ID: #7406, ) is hosting a crypto charity event with Sam Bankman Fried and other big crypto influencers on December 2nd. All proceeds go to GiveDirectly, one of Vitalik's favorite charities. Link: https://www.givedirectly.org/crypto-for-good-2021/
As Doodles, we care deeply about community and collective effort, and we must also recognize we are part of the global community. To this end, we think that the Doodles should use the power of our community to make a big difference in the world by supporting organizations that help those in need.
By using a set amount of Doodlebank funds to support charitable efforts, we're helping those who are less fortunate and showing the world we are more than just NFT collectors, we're a community that cares and gives back.
Note, this is a one time donation not a long term commitment to allocate a certain % of funds. These learnings will help inform future Doodlebank charity initiatives.
The Plan:
Use snapshot to vote on set amount to dedicate to match
Match donations in the December 2nd crypto charity event
Share the news through a social push (both official and unofficial)
The organizers have agreed to announce us as the only NFT project matching a donation (other matching orgs include FTX)
Analyze the success/ROI of our investment through tracking retweets, likes, general social sentiment, and new eyes on our project
@Explorer and @Jingaling share back the results to the community
Use these learnings to help direct future Doodles charity efforts.
