# Sponsor NFT

For each drop, the single largest NFT is reserved for the sponsor of the drop. In the [Genesis Drop](/nemus-docs/nemus-drops/drop-one-the-genesis-drop.md), this NFT is 324 hectares (800 acres) in size. In order to secure the sponsor NFT, a sponsor is required to seed the rewards pool with NEA tokens that are then distributed to Guardians over time.

Below are three important motivations for a sponsor to participate in a drop.

#### Exposure

The sponsor’s purchase of NEA signals to thousands of Guardians their desire to make Nemus a success. Each Guardian will be reminded of their motive each time they receive their rewards. Brand exposure will also be integrated into the app experience.

**Alignment**

Sponsorship makes a strong statement on the organization’s environmental stance, by empowering a community aligned with securing and conserving forest lands.

#### **Carbon Offsetting**

While it is not the main focus, the sponsor may be able claim a carbon offset for their sponsor area, directly benefiting from the value of carbon sequestration on the land.
