_TLDR: Use Gitcoin to manage our 2024 grants program_

# Background

@Sov, Head of Grants over at Gitcoin, proposed to manage our 2024 grants program: ​​[Grant Proposal - Gitcoin](http://forum.badger.finance/t/grant-proposal-gitcoin/6286)

# Proposal

Gitcoin requests a $15,000 grant to implement and manage this grant program. This leaves $235,000 of the original $250,000 budget available for grants.

The $15,000 grant will cover:

- Program design and implementation
- Ongoing management and support
- Platform customization for Badger DAO
- KYC process management
- Fund custody and distribution

# Metrics of Success

## How long will the investment thesis take to play out?

Until the end of the grants program; 2024-12-31.

## Will the treasury recoup funds or does the investment represent an outlay?

N/A, not an investment.
