Save2Save Community Governance

We are introducing a new round of community governance, exclusively for Save2Save pools, supporting regenerative projects on Celo. By voting you add $1 of sponsorship to the pools, for each voting point you have. With a max of ~$43.5 of sponsorship added per voter.

Each voter may spread voting points across any number of choices. Your voting points (and sponsorship) will be divided between the chosen options, according to how much weight you attribute each option. See the blog post for details: https://medium.com/@goodghosting/6d04242221f4

We have four pools you may support:

1. impactMarket: Afghanistan for hope

Description:
Afghan Hope community supports many Afghanistan women that have been forced to leave their homes and jobs. This community is essentially composed of widows from decades of war who need to feed many children. UBI in Afghanistan aims to fight poverty, reduce hunger, and create prosperity through entrepreneurship activities. By supporting this pool, you will directly contribute to poverty alleviation in Afghanistan which could be simply through purchasing a tailoring machine to start a micro-business.
