Special CARDANO and Donations

Donating is an incredible act and reflects CARDANO's values and we must think about people who require special treatment

This idea of a new challenge was proposed to the community so that they could build it collectively and help create the specific solution to the problem described and after said participation stage the result is the following:

In this new challenge, two kinds of projects can be presented:

1) donating to the underdeveloped world in the form of practical projects will transform many lives for better future: which means that any person, team, company or institution can present and carry out practical projects and donate them, for which they will request a budget.

**2)**Projects can be submitted to help "differently abled individuals" and obtain "Financing decentralized entrepreneurship beyond barriers"

a) What problems should projects in this category be solving?

In this new challenge we must try to solve all and any type of problems that people with "differently abled individuals have

b) Are you going to be funding proposers who have experienced / are experiencing the challenges you listed?

Anyone who wants to contribute to people with "differently abled" can do it and of course if you are part of the "differently abled individuals" you can also do it

All projects will undergo the respective evaluation according to the key metrics to be measured. However, if a project is presented by "differently abled individuals", it must be determined what kind of support the proponent needs or already has, the project will have priority and we must all help to generate good communication and special treatment and the community should get activated to provide additional support.

What type of projects would be able to apply here? Or is it aimed towards certain groups to apply for this?

In this new challenge, any person, team, company or institution that wants to contribute to help people with "differently abled" or make donations in the form of practical projects to help make the world a better place can submit proposals.

This project contains the following ONU sustainable development goals: Well-being, Health and Reduction of Inequalities

The requested budget (400,000 usd) is only 3% of the money available for Fund 8 and will be to finance the proposals that are presented and approved by the community in this future challenge. We consider that the budget requested is low compared to the importance and positive impact that this new challenge can have on the people who need it most thanks to the CARDANO community
