BitGive® (acquired by Heifer) Information

We are pioneers in digital philanthropy. Led by the first female founder in cryptocurrency, we enable people to do good things, better. BitGive Foundation was created with the goal of strengthening the global community’s philanthropic impact by facilitating a faster, affordable, and more secure process for moving funds all around the world. Established in 2013, we are the first Bitcoin and Blockchain technology nonprofit 501(c)(3), transforming the world for better using digital currencies. As an organization, we exist at the intersection of technology and philanthropy; a think tank for digital transparency for good, leveraging the efficiency and transparency of cryptocurrency, with real projects and results. Our signature offering, GiveTrack™ is a game-changing donation platform for nonprofits that provides transparency and accountability to donors by sharing financial information and direct project results in real-time. GiveTrack leverages blockchain technology to maximize philanthropic impact on the ground, empowering organizations in a new way, to connect, monitor and adjust the work they’re already doing. We’re arming them with the tools to do it better; effectively deploying funds in a transparent way to build donor engagement and trust. We understood the impact blockchain technology could have on many of the pain points nonprofits often suffer: lower costs in fees, faster transaction times, precise tracking of donor funds from beginning to end, and removal of misuse of funds. GiveTrack is our solution. BitGive has been featured in Entrepreneur, The Wall Street Journal, US News and World Report, NonProfit Times, Inside Philanthropy, Chronicle of Philanthropy, and other publications.
