Governed as a federated DAO of Local Bloom nodes, we’ve built communities around the world since 2008, through regional food security, Indigenous solidarity, and alternative economies. https://bloomnetwork.earth.\n\nWe hope that members of ReFi DAO, Greenpill Network, and Celo Public goods can also access our expertise and experience, and collaborate where mutually beneficial.\n\n# **Bringing IRL Impactooors Onchain** \n\n👋🏽 We are 33 Local Bloom hubs across 11 countries, and 30,000+ people on the ground. We’ve jumpstarted over 7,000 local urban and agroecology farms worldwide, 400+ community enterprises, and built permanent foundations for regenerative cultures. Our members have deep knowledge of how to achieve climate adaptation and watershed restoration, with decades of experience building local economies.\n\n[![5.jpg](https://i.postimg.cc/xjw3tw9R/5.jpg)](https://postimg.cc/V5FtNHrr)\n*pictured: Broadfield Enterprises, Uganda, food security and African economic sovereignty*\n\n\n# **Local Action Rewards** \n\n🎡 Thanks to your support in GG20, we successfully launched Bloom's Local Action Rewards to incentivize people to document their community impact and share knowledge. Our funding model enables peer learning and provides crucial financing for collaborative community labor, solving a major gap in philanthropy and **community-led economic development**.\n\nIt doubles as a media hacking platform, aggregating beautiful stories of inspiring communities from around the world, and giving people the tools and encouragement to organize where they live. **From separation to coordi-nation.**\n\n**GG21 Contribution Allocation:**\n- 90% to the Local Action Rewards pool.\n- 10% to platform development and training, including crypto education.\n\n🌸 **How It Works:**\n\n[![bounties-Flow.png](https://i.postimg.cc/gcghpbtF/bounties-Flow.png)](https://postimg.cc/LhZ5kwMN)\n\nBloom’s [Local Action Rewards](https://bloomnetwork.earth/view/announcement-local-action-rewards-942c6454c17d) help record and reward your community's talent investment in local and bioregional regeneration activities, using our social networking platform and blockchain tools. It's a new way to distribute philanthropic funds and cooperative profits for grassroots mobilization.\n\nLocal Bloom hubs and their members earn FLO (Flowers), our reputation token, by documenting their regenerative actions. The public can easily read about the actions, allowing peers to learn and improve their own impact. Our grants are dispersed based on FLO earned in that period. Bloom's social network, combining features of LinkedIn, Facebook, and Discord, supports effective mobilization around what is working well for climate adaptation and repair.\n\nNext, we are exploring ways to add community currency properties to FLO to support local business discovery, further utilizing [Inverter Network's](https://github.com/InverterNetwork) smart contracts to kickstart flywheels for bioregional economies.\n\n[![community-Currency-nodescrip.png](https://i.postimg.cc/cJY52P2q/community-Currency-nodescrip.png)](https://postimg.cc/1gmHN7yM)\n\nIt's an open discussion how we collaborate with other cosmo-local networks to maximize supporting and scaling what matters. Several Local Bloom hubs are also members of their local ReFi chapter, for example. We hope this listing helps you get to know us, and please visit [https://bloomnetwork.earth](https://bloomnetwork.earth) to learn more and read recent action reports.\n\n# Goal\n**Sponsors for the rewards pool are welcome. Our community could easily put $100M to effective use on proven local projects that are ready to scale, securing foodways and restoring watersheds for climate resilience.**\n\n# **Impact Since GG20** \n\n[Milestone reporting on Karma GAP](https://gap.karmahq.xyz/project/bloom-network/grants?tab=milestones-and-updates&grantId=0x4dec8c494dabd77b1712b4ce66cca5a0db244ef6d7462dc843a28282c61f012c).
