Previous Grants:                      https://github.com/Pcharlesme/Buildit-Stack-Hackathon-2022

Ecosystem Programs:      Buildit hackFest 2022 is a 2days web3 hackathon, Conference,& workshop will be committed to fund builders in the Web 3.0 field & provide supportin many aspects,funds incubator mentorship,projectsweb3 GameFi, Dapp, Defi, focus to make a global Stacks devs community in Africa https://lnkd.in/d2jXwkY3

GRANT MISSION, IMPACT, RISKS & REFERENCE

Grant Mission:          BuiltIt Hackathon will tremendously contribute to the growth of locals, junior and mid-level developers, and improvised resources to get started and explain the STACKS ecosystem, in the fields of WEB3, Dapps, and DAO, Blockchain, Defi, and others. Open Sources and Free Publication of resource materials for the growth of others.

  • Community Construction- Through offering education, technical, and community engagement opportunities In our open-sourced Knowledge Repository created during the hackathon, bringing and connecting users, builders, Creators, Web3 Developers, and other stakeholders together. We will build an online presence and community for all participants,

  • Community encouragement through rewards, professional development, and getting a chance to create content to earn Stacks. We will incentivize the community to earn other project tokens on stacks through bounties, and beta testing reviews on Stacks ecosystem projects.

  • Community Promotion: focuses on the perceived needs of developers, users, and others Through our dev-specific initiatives this can be integrated to helping Builders learn and then build Dapps on Stacks. Apart from that for other non-dev-focused initiatives, builders can refer to our Resources, Blogs, Websites, Twitter, and Video content and gain awareness of all developments on Stacks.

  • Community Growth/ Feedback: Build partnerships. Engagement through Twitter, Discord, and other Social Channels.

Grant Impact:               Awards, Support after the successful completion of the Hackathon Free Resources, engagement through Blogs, Code reviews, Videos engagements Engagement through Twitter, Discord, & other Social Channels. Building world-class Dapp, Bridge,& Smart Contracts using CLARITY Free Workshop for starters

Grant Risks:                          We don’t anticipate encountering any challenges throughout this project.

@Pcharlesme

We have identified the projects we will be awarding grants as part of Stacks Foundation Grants Program Cohort 18. I'm sorry to have to inform you that your project was not among those selected.

This is no way means that we do not see the value of the work you proposed. We're lucky to have so many talented independent researchers, developers, and community leaders like yourself building on Stacks. Unfortunately, we receive many more proposals than we can actually fund with our limited means, so competition is extremely tough. While we generally support innovation in all forms, we tend to prioritize projects that have the potential to advance and differentiate the broader ecosystem from other blockchains, as well as projects that meet critical needs of the community at the time. These constraints mean that in several instances, several excellent projects may not make it into a cohort.

We very much appreciate the time and effort you've put into this process and encourage you to continue watching this repo and consider submitting a new application if and when you feel your project better aligns with the current priorities of the Grants Program.

If you should have any questions, please let us know in the comment section below.

Best, Will Stacks Foundation Grants Program Manager
