What happens if the funding pool grows significantly?
Our goal is to provide amounts sufficient to launch and run charitable initiatives, starting with $100,000 for the first project. As the number of participants and interest in the program grow, the allocated amounts may increase. If the funded project shows good results and benefits the community, we plan to continue supporting it and help expand its impact over time.
