Dear Solar Community and Delegates,
My name is Jeffrey Tiefenthaler (Tief). I’m the Sr. Brand Ambassador at Solar Network. We are a community driven decentralized blockchain project where the native coin is SXP.
There is a big opportunity for Solar to grow in Latin America and we need your help! We have been working with Francisco Hernandez, the principal of Go English which is a private English school in Sonora, Mexico. The school started in 2007 and has been a reputable business expanding across the state of Sonora for the past 15 years and has five locations across Sonora where every year thousands of students go to learn English.
The big announcement today is that Go English has agreed to accept SXP for a scholarship fund. The combination of education and cryptocurrency is a powerful force that will build our community and help us grow. We are very excited to have them as our first partner in this space but in order to do this we need your support.
We are proposing Solar Network to sponsor the Go English Scholarship Program and help the underserved people in the state of Sonora, Mexico. Scholarship recipients will each get 6 free months of English classes. The cost of tuition for 6 months is approximately $18,000 MEX Pesos per student ($900 USD). Funding for this scholarship program will be received and paid for in SXP where the long-term goal is to award 53 scholarships.
The desire to achieve this goal does not supersede our commitment to Solar Network, therefore we will not award scholarships until we have the funds to support our objectives. This is why we have created milestones by breaking this proposal into 3 distinct phases.
Phase 1:
- To get started we need enough SXP to pay for 5 scholarships.
- 11,250 SXP (SXP/USD = 0.40 at current rate).
- SMaaJEGM5sqeURjk7aMhwymwo5FFr4BjD8 is the dedicated wallet address for donations.
- This is a new wallet (never has sent or received SXP).
- Please send me a DM or email me at Tief@Solar.org if you have any questions or you would like to donate.
Phase 2:
- Francisco and I will hold media appearances to publicly announce the scholarship program when we have received donations to support 5 scholarships. The announcement will get picked up by local and regional media. It will also be broadcast across television, radio and social media. Here we will announce our goals and objectives which include:
- Sponsoring 53 scholarships.
- Hosting classes on crypto, blockchain and the metaverse.
- Launch Go English in the District 53 metaverse.
- The goal in Phase 2 is to receive enough SXP to award 25 scholarships paid for by donations to the scholarship program. We will only issue scholarships as funds become available by way of donations.
- Public announcements about the scholarship program will include statements that Solar Network and District 53 are exclusive sponsors and Go English is accepting the payment in SXP. We are literally showing people that SXP is a community driven coin! This is a big deal because an established company that has been around for 15 years is accepting crypto.
- The public announcement will also include statements that Go English is testing District 53, a metaverse where students can learn English in a virtual environment.
- Students interested in receiving a scholarship must submit an application to Go English.
- The application will include a recorded statement (video preferably) sharing why they want the scholarship, and any information that might be helpful such as education level, school, family income and grades. This will help us find students who are truly committed and need to learn English.
- We will create a panel of judges to review these applications and select scholarship winners based on the criteria listed above.
- I will also participate as a judge helping review applications and award scholarship winners.
- I will travel to Sonora, Mexico to interview Francisco and meet the scholarship winners.
- In addition, Go English will open up their classroom (IRL and virtual) for classes on crypto and blockchain. In these classes I will share the benefits of Solar Network and District 53 to students.
Phase 3:
- When 25 scholarships have been awarded, we will initiate a 5% allocation to be used exclusively in District 53 by students and a 3% allocation to be used for residual expenses like travel costs, contingent staffing, marketing, food, and other administrative costs.
- Once we award scholarships to 53 students, we will have a huge celebration to honor this big achievement.
- This will include another local media campaign to share the results of the Go English Scholarship Program but it doesn’t have to stop there.
- The longer-term goal is to fully integrate Go English into District 53 where students can take virtual English classes paid for in SXP. We may also decide to continue sponsoring this program if it’s something the Solar Community and Delegates desire to continue.
Please help us meet this goal!
The breakdown below is based on current SXP prices (.40 SXP/USD). We will maintain a cost ratio in line with the local Mexican Peso so the numbers below will change depending on price fluctuations in SXP.
We believe this is an important first step in helping Solar develop a presence in Latin America and grow the community in Mexico. The Go English Scholarship Program is a stepping stone in the right direction because it will help Solar gain notoriety and credibility before the Blockchain Land conference in Nuevo León, Mexico this October 5th.
The program will be open until we have reached our goal. There is no timeframe or deadline for when this scholarship program will close.
