I’m eager to implement the admin endpoints for campaign approval and rejection. I’ll ensure that only admins can access them, update project status atomically, send notifications to creators, and log all actions for a complete audit trail, while including reasons for transparency and accountability.

Looking forward to being assigned, thank you.
