Multi-Pools and a New Partner Drop in Pomelo Grants Season 6
Season 6 begins May 31. Get all your matching pool details here!
Season 6 will be one for the ages!
We’re breaking ground with multiple matching pools — four total. Plus, one of those pools will be funded by the Telos community.
What are the matching pools for Season 6?
Altogether, the four matching pools have a total value of $182,000 for web3 public goods! Each pool’s individual value and eligibility criteria is listed below.
Matching Partner: EOS Network Foundation (ENF)
The ENF is providing funding for three matching pools, focusing its support on areas where EOS can really shine.
For all three rounds, projects must launch on the EOS blockchain and be a public good. One pool is dedicated to EOS Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) projects and one pool to EOS GameFi, along with the pool that you’re used to seeing for EOS public goods of any category.

How will multi-pools work?
Having four matching pools will mean four separate matching rounds. When joining the season, grant owners need to check each round’s eligibility criteria to select where their grant fits.
Donors, contributions stay the same for you, except that you can donate with EOS or TLOS from your EOS account.
