	 	 	 	
Hello dear Polkadot community,

after almost two years since our first proposal, we decided to come once again for your support. In this proposal, we are asking for **$72,180** for the content creation, event organization and marketing activities for the Polkadot ecosystem that Polkadotters did **since June 2022** with proposed funding **until June 2024** – thus we are asking for funding for our community activities for two years.

First a bit of history - we started the first and only [Czech & Slovak Polkadot community](https://www.facebook.com/groups/232197797602358) back in the summer of 2020. After realizing that there isn't much quality content about Polkadot even in English, we decided to fill this gap as well. Since then we have published almost 300 original articles on our [Medium](https://polkadotters.medium.com/), promoted Polkadot and parachain ecosystem on YouTube interviews with various influencers (for instance [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHKo2DIq5S4)), organized and co-organized a couple of conferences and meetups, hosted some popular Twitter Spaces with parachain teams and many more.
To put our current work into some numbers

 - 1617 followers on our Medium 	
 	
 - almost 150k views of our articles with more than 40k reads 	
 	
 - almost 5k followers on our Czech and English Twitter 	
 	
 - around 15k views of videos where we promote and explain Polkadot with various local influencers 	
 	
 - organized two local Polkadot meetups 	
 	
 - co-organized a couple of conferences where Polkadot played a main role with us being a speakers

For our future endeavors and how we plan to use the requested amount, please see the [detailed description and breakdown uploaded to Crust](https://crustipfs.info/ipfs/QmWqcN1erHTfTdiWTWxTfacyEby7uFpW21BXfUeuzYinJL). But in a nutshell, our aim is to keep delivering high-quality content and taking care of our local Czech community - with some extra perks like providing more content, developing a marketing strategy to reach a wider audience, starting to do monthly ecosystem recap videos, creating more Twitter content including spaces and many more. 

We also plan to focus on governance in general - by reviving our regular [governance news](https://polkadotters.medium.com/polkadot-governance-news-7-opengov-on-kusama-hacned-is-it-a-good-or-bad-thing-a051b0a65f7e), promoting interesting referendums in the ecosystem and obviously taking our part in voting and analysis of proposals. We also take responsibility as a voting delegate and Polkadotters are available for delegation on the new Governance dashboard and in the Nova wallet.

As you might notice, we have already proposed a similar [referendum on Kusama](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/155) which unfortunately failed despite overwhelming community support. We believe that the treasury spending problem on Kusama hasn't been resolved yet so that’s why we decided to go to Polkadot once OpenGov is live. This is also the very reason we go directly for the proposal instead of having a discussion first - because it already occurred in the original proposal. And finally, we made the following changes and additions to our proposal to make it more attractive for token holders

- we commit to organizing bi-monthly Polkadot meetups in various cities (and already did one in Prague since the original proposal)
- we extended our funding period up to June 2024 for almost the same amount of money (thus asking for funding for two years of operation)
- we created an onboarding campaign with rewards on Zealy for the Czech community that we will launch soon
- we will organize more Twitter spaces with various Polkadot projects in order to spark more interest in the community

Thank you for your support!

Yours Polkadotters :-)
