How it works

Follow every euro — from donation to proof

From the moment you donate, you follow your money — through the Foundation, into the work, all the way to a permanent on-chain record. No black boxes, no guessing.

1
Initiative

An initiative is selected

The Foundation vets each initiative for feasibility, impact, and accountability. Only approved initiatives go live — so every option you see is ready to deliver.

2
You

You give with a purpose

You find an initiative you believe in and donate to the OpenCharities Foundation with an allocation wish. Your gift arrives in the Foundation Safe the moment you pay.

3
Foundation

Funds pool — visibly

Every euro lands in a Gnosis Safe — on-chain and publicly verifiable. The running balance is visible to anyone. Nothing moves without an explicit board decision.

4
Foundation

The board decides to disburse

Once the threshold is met, the board reviews and approves the transfer. Funds move directly to the initiative. Never automatic, always accountable.

5
Initiative

The initiative gets to work

The team starts executing — training staff, building facilities, delivering care. Your allocation wish becomes real action on the ground.

6
You

You follow the work

The initiative sends progress updates to every supporter: milestones reached, photos from the field, financial reports. You see the work as it happens — not after the fact.
