Projects
The Dojo is the founding organization for this leading decentralization and blockchain advocacy organization. Dojans have testified and advocated in front of multiple legislative and regulatory bodies in California, Wyoming and Washington D.C. in favor of decentralization and appropriate blockchain regulation and policy.
ODL is an award-winning legal aid nonprofit working to show that poverty will be dramatically reduced when everyone has access to the law. ODL has been a Dojo project since 2016, like all projects we provide talent, ideas and capital to help them continue to prove their hypothesis that universal access to legal representation is THE best poverty disrupter available to policy makers.
Using metrics from the Robinhood foundation, ODL found that every dollar spent on universal legal services generates $6.6 in direct benefit to their clients and $14.7 in benefit to the larger community. This totals to $21 in total SROI for every dollar spent, making their services one of the most cost effective anti-poverty solutions.

Founders Dojo partners with Lincoln to mentorship to staff and students, innovation in programing and engagement with the community.
