<h1>Creating Sustainable Funding Streams: The Kokonut Foundation’s Approach</h1><h2>Executive Summary 📜</h2>The <a href="https://kokonut.foundation/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kokonut Foundation</a> is on a mission to address the pervasive issue of unstable funding sources for organizations dedicated to serving their communities. The struggle for sustainable financial support hampers these entities' operations and jeopardizes the essential services they provide to vulnerable populations. With over 60% of non-profit organizations citing securing adequate funding as their most significant challenge. The Kokonut Foundation aims to tackle this challenge head-on by leveraging the innovative Kokonut Framework to create Purpose-based Natural Assets, offering a sustainable solution that promises not only to alleviate financial pressures but also to foster a brighter future for communities around the globe. Our proposed solution involves creating Perpetual Nature Assets powered by trees leveraging the <a href="https://framework.kokonut.network/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kokonut Framework</a>, establishing a repeatable and scalable positive value flywheel. By harnessing the potential of natural assets, we seek to break free from the cycle of unpredictable financial support and ensure reliable access to resources for vital projects and services.<img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmeodFhzhYstK9VxCj92RgLGAVZvaprtX39rcsg3UtRb7k"><blockquote>Perpetual Public Goods Funding Flywheel diagram for viewer experience; <a href="https://kokonut.foundation/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Diagram-v0.2-KKN-Foundation.png" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Direct URL</a></blockquote> <h2>Our Ask</h2>In pursuit of our goals, we seek seed funding to cover operational expenses for establishing the local entity and registering the Foundation, creating the Blockchain layer, and executing proposed actions. This initial investment will lay the groundwork for our ambitious 24-month plan to establish a robust anti-capture structure, integrate decentralized governance, form partnerships with NGOs, and launch pilot projects. <blockquote>With your support, the Kokonut Foundation is poised to make a meaningful impact by creating sustainable funding streams and empowering communities worldwide.</blockquote> <h2>Problem Statement 🤯</h2>In communities across the globe, the quest for sustainable funding sources to support vital projects and initiatives is an ongoing challenge. This struggle is particularly acute for organizations that rely heavily on external financial support, such as third-party investments, grants, and donations. Without a stable source of funding, these entities face significant hurdles in extending their operational runway or bringing new ideas to fruition. The impact of this financial instability is far-reaching, affecting not only the organizations themselves, but also the communities they serve.<h2>Proposed Solution ♻️</h2>By creating a self-sustaining mechanism, we can ensure that vital projects and services are no longer at the mercy of fluctuating funding sources. This solution aligns with our mission to empower communities and organizations by providing them with reliable access to resources, ultimately fostering resilience and progress in areas where it is most needed.<h2>Goals and Objectives 📝</h2>Our primary goal is to establish a robust anti-capture hybrid structure within a 24-month timeframe, integrating decentralized governance and traditional organizational elements to support the creation of Purpose-based Natural Assets. This structure will enable us to initiate and sustain collaborations with Local and Global NGOs, fostering both the web3 ecosystem and local community development.<h2>Impact 📈</h2>Expected Outcomes<ul><li>Sustainable Funding Streams</li><li>Empowerment of Communities</li><li>Innovation and Progress</li><li>Partnerships Development</li></ul>﻿<h2>Short-Term Impact</h2><ul><li>Stabilized Funding: Non-profit organizations will experience a more stable financial environment, enabling them to plan and implement projects without the uncertainty of funding cuts or pauses in critical initiatives.</li><li>Innovative Partnerships: Forming strategic partnerships with NGOs and blockchain organizations will kick-start collaborative efforts to address pressing community needs and environmental challenges.</li></ul> <h2>Long-Term Impact</h2><ul><li>Sustained Resilience: Non-profit organizations will build resilience against funding instability, ensuring the continuity of essential services and the pursuit of long-term projects that drive meaningful change.</li><li>Economic and Environmental Progress: The creation of sustainable funding streams will catalyze economic and environmental progress, fostering innovation in conservation efforts, educational programs, healthcare services, and community development initiatives.</li><li>Community Empowerment: Communities will experience sustained empowerment through reliable access to essential services, leading to lasting improvements in social well-being, education, healthcare, and environmental sustainability.</li></ul> <h2>Evaluation 🔍</h2>The evaluation of our project’s success will be multifaceted, reflecting the diverse layers of our initiatives and the unique partnerships involved. The blockchain layer evaluation will be performed by the Community-run DAO for the sake of transparency. The success metric could be based on how many Niche Community Initiatives are being funded and how this value is providing growth to the ecosystem. This approach ensures that our governance structure remains decentralized, aligning with our commitment to transparency and community involvement. On the real-world layer, evaluation will be conducted by Local &amp; Global NGOs that are part of the purpose-based projects. These organizations bring subject-matter expertise in their respective areas and have established frameworks to verify success. Their insights will provide valuable feedback on the tangible impacts of our initiatives, ensuring that our efforts align with real-world needs and priorities. By leveraging these distinct evaluation mechanisms, we aim to gain a holistic understanding of our project’s impact.<h2>Key Personnel 🔑</h2><ul><li>Alejandro Adon, Secretary General of Kokonut Network: Alejandro brings extensive experience in organizational leadership and strategic planning, having played a pivotal role in shaping the vision and direction of the Kokonut Network.</li><li>Gerkery Soto, Chief Technology Officer of Kokonut Network: With a strong background in technology and innovation, Gerkery is well-equipped to lead the technological aspects of the Kokonut Foundation’s initiatives.</li><li>Stephany Perez, Secretary of Kokonut Foundation: Stephany’s role as Secretary of the Kokonut Foundation positions her as a key liaison between the foundation and external stakeholders.

CRYPTOMURALS 👾📁

Cryptomurals is a blockchain-based platform focused on promoting and preserving the best street art worldwide, making it accessible as a public good. Our mission is to preserve the cultural heritage with interactive web3 dApps and bring artists and active citizens together to build inclusive environments in public spaces. The project was started as an <a href="https://showcase.ethglobal.com/web3jam/cryptomurals" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">EthGlobal finalist</a> at the Web3Jam Hackathon in November 2021 and since then it has been iterating a lot always in head of Nats Giraldo a.k.a <a href="https://twitter.com/0xnats" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@0xnats</a> and recently joined Joanna Caraballo a.k.a <a href="https://twitter.com/jojoliciosa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jojoliciosa</a> &nbsp;1. Cryptomurals Cryptomurals aims to be a living archive in the Ethereum blockchain that allows navigating the history of all the layers of murals painted over the years on the same wall - we call it "The Wallchain".&nbsp; Cryptomurals public gallery will be the digital home to curated geolocated murals, with a dynamic map that allows exploring cities in gamified street-art huntings. 2. Collaborative experiences We believe that art is for everyone.&nbsp;Cryptomurals run local initiatives to support artists to create murals and tokenize their artworks in cities around ETH community events.&nbsp; 3. Street art hunters community Our platform will allow a collaborative process where individuals provide insights on the state of the artworks by city, securing the preservation of the heritage and keeping the archives updated.&nbsp; The community will collaborate asynchronously in challenges around inclusion, culture promotion, and web3 adoption initiatives to fund street art as a public good while playing around. It's a tool that can be used by anyone who wants to make their city a more beautiful place. A geolocation-based scan system will allow participants to claim new murals and unlock exclusive content such as animations, AR experiences, or soul-bonds NFTs. &nbsp;4. The future of Cryptomurals Cities and art festivals can integrate Cryptomurals as the leading platform to archive the cultural heritage of the murals in their location. We want to make it easy for anyone to use web3 tools to share their local murals with others worldwide.&nbsp; Insights in the Cryptomurals platform will nurture the community's collective intelligence and the decision-making around local-run initiatives. Opportunities can include quadratic voting to promote new murals geolocations or support the renovation of existing spots. We are a group of street artists and tech enthusiasts from Latin America who believe in inclusion thanks to art workshops and renovation of public spaces such as basketball yards, Sk8 parks, etc.&nbsp; We believe in street art as a public good. &nbsp;5. Contributions We're thrilled to share that we're making progress with our mission.&nbsp; Along with Devcon and the <a href="https://ethcolombia.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ETH Colombia community</a>, we had built Cryptomurals graffiti tours with the <a href="https://cryptomurals.doingud.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Cryptomurals Street Art Hunt</a> experience for #DevconVI visitors. Participants can discover Bogotá and unlock exclusive content in our genesis. The experience is created by <a href="https://cryptomurals.xyz/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">u</a>s and developed thanks to the support of <a href="https://doingud.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Doingud</a>.&nbsp; We're excited to continue on this journey with the progressive support of our community, and we hope you will join us in our quest to extend the values of decentralization to fund public goods.

ReFi Atlantico | Promoting Sustainable Living

Regenerate Latam is all about uniting people, projects, and movements that are working to build a more regenerative, equitable, and thriving future across Latin America. Our focus is on ReFi (Regenerative Finance) and other innovative initiatives that not only aim to restore degraded ecosystems, but also strengthen local economies, empower communities, and create long-term value that flows back — to people and to the planet. We believe regeneration is not just about environmental recovery, but about creating systems that nourish life in all its forms.Latin America is one of the most biodiverse and culturally rich regions on Earth. It holds immense reserves of natural resources, deep-rooted indigenous wisdom, and communities that have demonstrated remarkable resilience in the face of adversity. We believe this region has everything it takes to become a global leader in regenerative solutions, setting an example that inspires and guides the rest of the world. Regenerate Latam exists to support this vision by connecting doers, dreamers, innovators, and funders who care about making tangible, lasting change. We facilitate collaboration, share resources, and help projects find the visibility and support they need to scale their impact. This is a call to action. If you’re building something regenerative in LatAm — or want to uplift those who are — we want to hear from you. Let’s connect, collaborate, and co-create a future where Latin America’s regeneration story becomes a blueprint for the planet. This is just the beginning, and together we can make it unstoppable.
