About
Weekly newsletter/report into 1 location you haven't heard of but should. It covers everything from architecture, to geography, to population and cultural shifts, to everything in between.
Impact
This introduces people to places they haven't heard of in a new and interesting light. It makes people feel more connected with the entire world around them and more informed on everything in it.
Progress
Early stage
Team
Led by a national geography bee participant, at 5 years old knew the capital and flag of every country around the world, and has been found in new cities giving directions to locals.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
