Description
Giveth is an open, non‑hierarchical global initiative that empowers social, environmental, and humanistic impact projects using modern blockchain technologies. Built on Ethereum, the platform enables zero‑fee donations and ensures full transparency so donors and communities can see exactly where every contribution goes. Through the GIVeconomy, donors receive GIV tokens via the GIVbacks program and can participate in governance and project visibility via mechanisms like GIVpower and Quadratic Funding .
Impact
Giveth supports many like-minded initiatives that are adding value to the world without necessarily having a direct profit motive. The platform is building a self-sustaining giving economy that encourages and rewards altruistic intention.
