Proposal description
Background
My name is Afrikanus Kofi Akosah Adusei, Founding President of Africa Youth Peace Call (www.aypcghana.org ), an independent, non-profit, research and educational organisation devoted to the principles of individual liberty, secure private property rights, free markets, the rule of law, limited government, and government non-interference in the economy. I am also a journalist by profession and currently I write for the Coin Telegraph,The Dash Times and have been given the nod to write for Bitcoin.com as well with the pseudonym Frisco d’Anconia. Africa’s adoption of Cryptocurrency is very slow even though the digital currency has an enormous power to liberate the continent economically and politically.
Tour
From the 1st week of November, 2016 to February, 2017, I will be traveling through six Southern African countries to interact with the Blockhain/Bitcoin Communities, promote and write about Bitcoin programs and projects for the Coin Telegraph. These are the countries I will be visiting: Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe & South Africa. I will hold meet-ups, interact & interview industry players, activists and ordinary people on the streets. Also, I will do podcasts for the Coin Telegraph and other news outlets. Botswana will be my base as I travel to all the other countries overland. In each country I will spend at most two weeks.
Sponsors
I am so excited about Dash from the moment I got introduced to it by my colleague and mentor Joel Valenzuela not long ago. It is important Africa gets to know of this unique cryptocurrency.I intend to make it one of my agendas on this tour by promoting it through the various Meet-Ups I will organize. In fact I intend to organize two Dash Meet-Ups in every country of the six I am traveling to. The only cost involved in this tour that is not yet covered is air ticket from Ghana-Botswana-Ghana. In exchange for promoting Dash I should be very grateful if Dash could cover my air ticket which costs $1000. Aside the Dash Meet-Ups in the six countries I will have your logo on my Blog, Social Media Pages and mentions in all my media appearances and releases. Photos and videos taken during the events will be put together to promote Dash online. Getting people on the ground to continue promoting Dash is crucial, therefore I will recruit Crypto enthusiasts who will form Dash Fan Clubs to sustain promotion.

and yes please do post pictures, we love pictures.
if you have any extra dash left over please set up some wallets and give some people free dash.
In the future it would just be nice to see clear, easy-to-understand lists.
This is one of those budget proposals that in a way touches the core of our decentralized budget system ; enabling community members to educate and spread the word of Dash towards those countries that are relatively unfamiliar with cryptocurrencies.
