Decentralizing Charity Giving. - with GoHelpFund
The world is becoming a better place.I know you’re probably thinking “what are you saying?. Have you seen the news lately?”. Well yeah, I know about all the negative things that are happening everyday. I know about the increasing terrorism. I know about global warming. I know about the massacres and the school shootings. I know all about them.
But I choose to see on the bright side of things, and I choose to keep my faith in humanity. There's always usually some good news, you just have to search for it.
The amount of money that is given out to charity is increasing every year too .Charitable giving continued its upward trend in 2016, as an estimated $390 billion was given to charitable causes. Giving from individuals alone amounted to $282 billion, with the rest coming from estates, foundations and corporations. And even if that doesn’t technically outweigh the negatives to warrant a statement of the world getting better, at least it indicates that there’s still hope for humanity.
Because of the increasing interest that people are showing in charitable giving, and the steady growth that is seen in the industry, it became necessary to have a decentralized platform that will organize and efficiently manage these charities, using none other than the revolutionary blockchain technology.
GoFundHelp Project is here. And it is that platform. Set on an Erthereum platform, It will aim to achieve the following goals.
Help eradicate poverty by empowering the local communities to be self-reliant, as opposed to just providing them with food or clothing which just increases dependency.
Work to improve policies that will protect children, especially in war stricken or hunger stricken areas. The aim is to make the world a safe environment for children to grow, by providing security, and also, equally important, education.
The project will make efforts to protect human rights, which is not to be left to governments and United Nations only.
Through international cooperation, problems of economic and sociocultural nature will be eradicated, irrespective of race or sex which are facing the problem.
Terrorist groups usually prey on poor and miserable people and recruit them with promises of better life. With poverty eradicated, the lure of wealth will not be enough to recruit people into terrorist groups.
Lastly, a powerful action plan will be created and followed in order to achieve these goals, because goals without a plan are just ideas.
