POLKADOT CHARITY FOUNDATION - Establishment & Inaugural Initiative Launch
Introduction
Dear Polkadot community,
In this proposal, we aim to establish the Polkadot Charity Foundation in order to promote Polkadot technology for charitable causes, supporting projects that enhance social benefits and commitment to people, positioning itself as a leader in social responsibility. The creation of this foundation will benefit the growth of Polkadot and increase overall brand visibility, reputation and adoption. The work of the foundation will have a significant impact through international media and social coverage, solidifying Polkadot's presence worldwide.

Our Team
1. Problem Statement
In today's competitive market, maintaining a positive brand image and achieving widespread recognition is increasingly challenging. Many companies struggle with limited visibility, negative public perception, and a lack of engagement with their target audience, and they resort to partnering with other NGOs to achieve greater reach. Nowadays, most companies in the blockchain industry do not have a corporate social responsibility arm as part of their company vision and mission.
2. Objective
The primary goal of the foundation is to enhance the global image of Polkadot. This proposal outlines how strategic charitable programs can foster brand growth, improve community loyalty, and establish Polkadot as a leader in social responsibility.
3. Solution
Establishing the Polkadot Charity Foundation represents a strategic move for Polkadot´s development by integrating philanthropy directly into its operations. Unlike partnering with external NGOs, creating an in-house foundation allows for full control over the charitable initiatives and ensures alignment with the core values and goals. Additionally, these activities will be widely publicized through national and international media outlets, generating positive social coverage and enhancing the brand’s reputation.
4. Conclusion
By establishing the Polkadot Charity Foundation, Polkadot creates a unique value proposition that differentiates it from its competitors, strengthens its relationship with the community and increases the influx of new users.
P.S. As early adopters of Polkadot, we reaffirm our commitment to Polkadot Charity Foundation by proactively funding the development of the website, branding, and promotional materials.

Hi and thanks for your ref and proposal! I miss a strong narrative how Polkadot's technology can be leveraged for more impactful, sustainable outcomes. Most CSR initiatives typically establish a clear connection between their activities and their broader social impact. Without this, it might be more effective to donate to well-established international, national, or local organizations to strengthen our brand. I'm also curious about the decision to request funding in DOT rather than stablecoins. Given the inherent volatility of DOT, how do you plan to manage potential fluctuations in value? thx for your response.
Hello everyone! First of all, I want to thank you for this proposal, as I believe that if it moves forward, it could help Polkadot become even more visible, especially if the media picks up on this initiative. Not to mention the great work that could be done by helping charitable causes; I think that so far there hasn't been any similar initiative in Polkadot (at least none that I'm aware of), and it could be very positive for the entire ecosystem.
