GIVING BAYC: Made By Apes Charity By Autistic Teams Up With Animoca Brands To Bring 1,000 Children A Merry Moca Christmas!

Things were anything but boring this holiday season as Made By Apes’ Charity By Autistic teamed up with Animoca Brands to bring over 1,000 children in Africa a Merry Moca Christmas!

2024 ended on a high note around the swamp thanks to the efforts of CT Baller, AKA David, the Mocaverse, and the Bored Ape Yacht Club community, who united to make a real-world difference.

 

"Bored Ape Animoca Day,” David tweeted along with a video of the event. “This holiday season, we shared joy and love with over 1,000 children in Africa. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Web3 family!”

 

 

“We organized busses to bring these children from far and near communities, providing them with food, drinks and clothes and a celebratory Christmas holiday party,” David told the paper.

As the Bored Ape Gazette previously reported, David has been bringing the Yugaverse and the broader Web3 world together to help Ghanaian children with special needs since 2022.

 Earlier this year, David partnered with Novel Labs and Pudgy Penguins to build a well in an African village and deliver Web3-inspired gifts to the local community.

“In Africa, some villages have no access to clean drinking water,” David said in a video at the time. “This entire village, including animals, depended on a swamp. They would walk mile long hikes at night for water. So, we partnered with Novel Labs to make a difference. We used this giant drill to dig 100’s of feet into the ground and we struck water. We installed a water pump to supply the entire village with water. After months of work, we visited the community again. We came bearing gifts. Serving over 1000 people in the community with clean water, pouring libation. We are grateful to the Pudgy team for sending down plushies for this. As Web3, we can make a difference.”

 

Looking ahead, David plans to expand his efforts to support Ghanaian children with special needs in 2025.

Recently, he published his first Ape Improvement Proposal, aiming to create ApeCoin’s first-ever yearly social impact volunteer program in Africa.

“To support us in 2025, keep your eyes out for our upcoming AIP-575 which seeks to build sustainable bakeries to employ single mothers of special needs children to enable them care for their children, and build an educational center to onboard students unto apechain and educate on neurodivergence,” he said.
