Grant funding would go primarily towards marketing, communications, and education. As we move from closed to open beta, increased emphasis is being placed on making onboarding simple and accessible, and on creating educational content to allow communities to self-onboard. We have had significant interest, with over 20 communities on the wait list, and are now working to improve the accessibility of the onboarding experience to reduce drop-offs.

In addition, some funding would go towards ongoing software development.
