Our focus is to delivery tangible regenerative outcomes within Mexico City,🪅 this is what keep us moving.
We are a project who started in Gitcoin round 17, we are the true case of hard work empowered by Gitcoin, from our 1st round on GC17 where we collected $245 USDC who let us build a website, and allowed us to start running our own events. Rapidly the Regens in Mexico joined and since then wee have been having significantly growth.
Our Twitter growth from 3 people to 500+ true heartful followers on twitter.
We grew from be an unknown community to become a popular community leading Regenerative Finance all across Mexico, this is within the Web3 Community.
From Zero to the stage of Ethereum Mexico 2023.

_/> Help us keep crushing Web3 growth with an emphasis on Regenerative Finance.
The organic growth of our ReFi Mexico initiative is a proof that Gitcoin and the Web3 is actually changing the world.
Our vision is to map regenerative, circular and solarpunk projects around mexico, conserning the economic donut, that encompasses 9 planetary and 12 human needs, in order to thrive in an self organized, yet complex societies. We start by onboarding Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 projects, with inclusion in mind, even if they run no tech at all. Within our community network we are helping farmers, activists, eco artists, green house keepers, and more, to create a Giveth.io account so they can start reiceving donations to boost their projects. We foster a caring and giving enviroment to create new options for anyone who lacks funding from the centralized status quo.
We continue growing & educating everyone throughout all of Mexico about Regenerative Finance & Web🕸️3
