This is a pitch to create a program that reimburses any costs or time people spend cleaning up a highway or volunteering if they get a local highway sigh changed to “DOGE” or “OWN THE DOGE”

This is just a funny, local way anyone can use Doge for the greater good.

DOGE VALUES  
Do Good: You clean up your community’s roads.  
Spread Joy & Have Fun: You make Doge locally famous.

HOW TO  
Step 1 - find your local transportation agency website or phone number.

Step 2 - call them and say you want to adopt a highway. Sometimes there’s an online form.

Step 3 - put the name on the sign as ‘DOGE’ or ‘OWN THE DOGE’ or something fun Doge related

Step 4 - clean up highway per your agreement (usually 1-2 times per year)

Step 5 - post proof of your sign on socials and tag @ownthedoge (links: [Own The Doge | Twitter, Instagram, TikTok | Linktree](https://linktr.ee/ownthedoge))

Step 6 - send us proof/links to posts and we can cover any costs you incurred via a DOG token stipend

BORK!

This is really good idea because it reminds me of Dubai walking blue lane. The proposal could include “doge lane” just for pets 🐕 with artistic creativity that represents doge culture

We don’t have a similar system in Europe, but I support this many times over! Such a Dogely thing to do.
