Stellar's Community Growth QF round in action: the second year of the quadratic funding initiative connecting grassroots communities and Stellar ambassadors. Featured project pitches from Nigeria and Uganda showcase how regional teams are building Web3 education and onboarding locally.
Stellar's second Community Growth QF round featured project showcases from emerging market communities seeking funding to build grassroots Web3 initiatives. Hosted by Giveth, the round offers 50k XLM in matching funds from the Stellar Development Foundation (Sept 21-Oct 4, 2026). Speakers included Danielle from SDF explaining the revamped ambassador program, which narrowed regional focus to individual countries and prioritized developer onboarding. Featured projects included Polly Raiders (Nigeria), building a Web3 education center while supporting youth with vocational training, and Stellar Uganda, a developer-focused community initiative. The round aims to surface emerging market leaders and signal community funding priorities via quadratic funding mechanics.
