# Drift: Fund The Drift Working Group?
## Summary
Proposal to establish the Drift Working Group (DWG), a community-run initiative modeled on successful Solana ecosystem working groups. The proposal requested 50,000 DRIFT tokens to fund initial setup and 3 months of operation focused on content creation, community activation, and educational development. The working group would operate independently with initial collaboration from the Drift core team.
