Excited to share some news with you - we’re raising 1 ETH from the Farcaster community to reimburse creators and artists for Farcon NYC Summit tickets  they acquired. 

We already have some users who offered to match the funds we raise - we are extremely grateful for their generous donations.

How to Donate ⬇️

The fundraiser will take place from Feb 18 through March 19. We will start accepting scholarship applications only AFTER the fundraising period ends and we know the exact number of scholarships we can offer.

Also note that this initiative is independent from the official Farcon NYC org efforts.
