The Grape Grant program is aimed at accelerating the growth and adoption of DAO tooling on Solana. Over the next month, we will be releasing a series of dev grants aimed aimed at accelerating the growth and adoption of DAO tooling on Solana.

For this first grant series, we’ve focused on bringing the multi-faceted needs of the Grape community directly to the Grape Dashboard. This includes voting, payments, and governance metrics.

This first grant for 25,000 USDC is pieced into components to allow for multiple individuals to get involved and work on this collectively.
