<h2>About the Grant</h2>
Jup DAO&rsquo;s grant program is designed to support those who identify unfilled gaps within the Jupiverse and actively work to fill them. If you want to tackle an unaddressed need and ultimately pursue a workgroup out of it, then this is for you.
&nbsp;
There is no minimum amount to ask for with a grant, but there is a maximum of $10k
<h2>How to get a grant?</h2>
<h3>Step 1. Identify a need for the DAO</h3>
The first step is finding gaps where community needs are unaddressed. Think of ideas which can help to grow the Jupiverse. Past grantees have undertaken initiatives including:
<ul>
<li>Working on the design needs for DAO workgroups and activities</li>
<li>Developer relations to help broaden Jupiter integrations</li>
<li>Regional initiatives focused on language-based outreach</li>
</ul>
If you are solving an unaddressed problem in the DAO, you are already on the right path.
<h3>Step 2: Start doing the work</h3>
The next step is to then start working on your solution, either as a team or solo.&nbsp;
Execution matters more than perfection, so start small and experiment &amp; improve. Show that you can deliver and the DAO will support you.
If you have any questions, come to the CWG Office Hours on Mondays at 17:00 UTC.
<h3>Step 3: Request a grant on Superteam Earn</h3>
<ul>
<li>Once you feel that you are ready to scale things up, apply for a grant on this site</li>
<li>If your proposal is approved, you will then go through a voting process internally</li>
</ul>

Jupiter DAO Grants

<h1>About The Grant</h1>
Jupiter DAO&rsquo;s Uplink Working Group is inviting applications for grants from aspiring Solana creators. These grants are for creators dedicated to promoting Jupiter, Jupiter DAO, and advancing the Solana ecosystem in alignment with the Jupiter brand and ethos.
&nbsp;
The Uplink Working Group is a vital part of Jupiter DAO and one of the select few working groups funded by the DAO. Our mission is to create and disseminate content that amplifies key messages from the Jupiter team, the DAO, and its partners as broadly and effectively as possible. Ultimately, our goal is to expand the community by attracting new members, and increasing the number of Jupiter users.
&nbsp;
For more information of what Uplink is about please read the following: <a href="https://www.jupresear.ch/t/proposal-uplink-working-group-budget-final/18103">https://www.jupresear.ch/t/proposal-uplink-working-group-budget-final/18103</a>&nbsp;
<h2>🎯 Areas of Focus:</h2>
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Short Form Video: Meme-y videos, educational videos, hype videos, it doesn&rsquo;t matter. Anything that helps grow the Jupiverse is welcome..&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Long Form Content: Could be high quality tutorials, deep dives into core concepts like PPP, or trading focused materials.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Live Streamers: Streamers who can create content related to memecoins and leverage Jupiter products.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Animated Short Videos: Animated content that has broad appeal and is entertaining rather than informational.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Other Creative Content: This is just the beginning of the list. If you have an idea for a marketing stunt, a badass collaboration, or anything else that helps spread the gospel of Jupiter, we want to hear about it.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
&nbsp;
&nbsp;⚙️ How It Works:
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Submit application form on Superteam Earn.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">We will typically respond within ~72 hours.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">If there is interest, you'll receive an email invitation to discuss the details of your trial, onboarding and further steps.</li>
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Typically contributors start on a trial basis for 1-4 weeks, with clear goals outlined.</li>
</ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">If successful a renegotiation will take place and a new proposal, including milestones will be implemented.&nbsp;</li>
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">If unsuccessful, trialists will be notified and feedback will be provided.</li>
</ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">We request that you update us once a week regarding your progress, and when milestones are achieved.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Submit finished work for feedback, review, and distribution.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
<h2>🤝 Guidelines</h2>
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Be Concise: Being clear and succinct is always helpful.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Create what the Jupiter ecosystem needs: We often see people on Twitter (and elsewhere) saying things like "Jupiter needs X" or "Jupiter would be better if it had Y". Use this information to your advantage!</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Does your proposal align with Jupiter's overall vision? How does your proposal bring value to Jupiter as a brand and/or company?</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Be sure that first time readers understand the details of the proposal, and can easily determine the value proposition and why it makes sense for both parties.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">In the project description category, please be sure to include a quantitative scope of work that reflects your monetary ask.</li>
</ol>
