I’ll be honest: I need help amplifying this. The Marinade campaign is one of the best ways to support Venezuela right now on @solana. The team worked hard to make something like this possible: You keep custody of your SOL. Only the staking rewards generated during July go to International Medical Corps for relief efforts in Venezuela. Right now, only around 5 SOL has been staked. This is simple, safe, and can make a real difference.
