@StellarOrg and @Giveth launched a $50,000 matching grant program using Quadratic Funding to support community-led Stellar educational events worldwide. The initiative aims to identify new community leaders and ambassadors while fostering global adoption through workshops, hackathons, and localized content.

@StellarOrg has partnered with @Giveth to launch the Stellar Community Launch, a grant program earmarking $50,000 in matching funds for individuals and teams hosting Stellar-focused educational events globally. The program uses Quadratic Funding, a democratic funding mechanism where the number of unique contributors matters more than donation size, ensuring broad community support and serving as a talent-scouting mission for the Stellar Ambassador Program. Eligible projects include developer workshops on Soroban, community meetups, hackathons, and localized content in non-English languages. The application deadline is August 6, 2025, with funding rounds running August 19 - September 2, and events taking place between mid-September and October 31, 2025. Each project can receive up to 5,000 USDGLO in matching funds.
