# Mucho Love 4 Month Extension

![](https://i.imgur.com/VhBvzNf.jpg)
#### tl;dr:

A volunteering community focused on proliferating Nouns combining volunteering campaigns, community service, and social action.

### Where did Mucho Love come from?

A little bit over a month ago, the prop.house 655 & 656 ([Prop House ](https://prop.house/proposal/656) and [Prop House ](https://prop.house/proposal/655)) passed to fund “Nounifying Children’s Hearts.” This proposal supported the pilot for starting a volunteering community with the target of evolving into a Decentralized Non-Profit Organization.

### What is Mucho Love?

Mucho Love (a lot of love) is a community that seeks to contribute to various causes one event at a time while proliferating Nouns. **Mucho Love is born from the desire to help, creating a community that focuses on volunteer campaigns, community service, and social action**. We seek to impact various causes by addressing problems that affect our society. Mucho Love aims to cultivate a community in which all members feel part of something bigger than themselves, making them feel nounish.

### How does Mucho Love work?

Mucho Love was created by 5 founders, who wear many hats and structured what it is today. We plan to expand the team next year to escalate further and establish more specific scopes. Currently, we have over 30 community members eager to volunteer for the causes we are aiding.

Mucho Love currently works on a 9-step system.

1. **Ideation:** planning and deciding on activities.
2. **Outreach:** contacting the organizations/places, writing letters/petitions, and setting up dates/places.
3. **Chronogram/Requirements:** Itinerary, step-by-step program to be performed on events, pre-event checklist, proofreading.
4. **Quotations:** quotation of each item or service (3 quotations from different companies per item or service)
5. **Payments and Negotiations:** negotiating with businesses, establishing formal relationships, explaining MUCHO LOVE, and paying for services/items.
6. **Pre-Event:** revision of the pre-event checklist, volunteer count, and Zoom meetings with volunteers and multimedia team to prepare for the event.
7. **Event Day:** role call, transportation to the event, itinerary execution, feedback.
8. **Post Event:** post-event multimedia management and feedback from participants.
9. **Documentation:** establishing the framework to replicate the current working system by documenting for the continuous improvement of the project.

### How does this benefit the DAO?

**Charity** is a recurrent activity/topic within the Nounish ecosystem—that’s why we decided to start a nounish volunteering community that makes sure to proliferate Nouns with the values and vision it represents. **Mucho Love aims to become one of the Nounish platforms regarding community service, social work, and volunteering campaigns.** Mucho Love’s activities will all be shared through Twitter and Instagram, appealing to the masses and expanding global Noggle adoption.

Mucho Love is starting operations in the Dominican Republic but aims to develop a model that is replicable internationally. Also, if needed, we want to be able to travel to any part of the world to aid any team who needs help developing charitable efforts in their respective communities. 

### Goals

Our goal is to **establish the foundation of Mucho Love as a future Decentralized Non-Profit Organization** **that will allow us to replicate the model in any part of the world.** The structure/model created will be available for any team that wants to make charitable efforts in their respective communities. We also want to keep collaborating with established Nounish projects (like BigShotKlim’s pins and Messhup’s books) that can contribute with donations to proliferate Nouns further.

Mucho Love will carry out during the 4-month extension events/donations/activities among the following:

* Hospital Robert Ried
* Hospital Hugo Mendoza
* Red Misericordia (Orphanage)
* Hogar Escuela Santo Domingo Savio (Orphanage/School)
* Escuelita Café con Leche (Orphanage/School)

*2 institutions have not given a definitive yes; therefore, they are subject to change.

### Pilot results

The pilot successfully helped children feel joy despite going through difficult moments. We also showed what the Noggles are and what they can do. People fell in love with Messhup’s books and BigShotKlim’s Noggle pins. Children that used glasses felt even more identified with the Noggles. I can genuinely say that the pilot was a success; the Noggles were well received, and we helped out 300 children and their parents while proliferating Nouns, love, and optimism.

300 Children received 300 Nounish goodie bags containing:

* Messhup’s coloring book (300 total)
* Crayola box (300 total)
* Diapers (1440 total)
* Stickers (600 total)
* BigShotKlim’s Noggle Pins (100 total)
