Hi @luhong123

Wanted to send a friendly check in.
As of this comment date, haven't seen any client applications or DataCap disbursements for the organization. Inactive organizations are in the process of being reviewed to see if still wanting to remain in program. If you would like this pathway to remain active as an Allocator, kindly asking that you reply to the proposal with your timeline for onboarding pathway or plan for action to clients.
