Grants Protocol aims to decentralize funding access, empowering any community to run their own grants program. We've helped thousands of projects and teams grow their open-source ecosystems. The internet has unlocked unprecedented opportunities for collaboration and creation. Now web3 technology like open-source protocols and decentralized blockchains give us the ability to take that co-creation to a new scale. The Gitcoin community uses this technology to fund and build digital public goods projects that serve everyone, and solve our most immediate problems. Open source code meets open economies. Build resilient projects, better coordination, and positive-sum outcomes. Growing networks with aligned incentives toward the wellbeing of each participant and the system as a whole. Through distributed funding and organizations, we build together toward our shared goals.
