Since onboarding, the organization has:

  • Raised over $100,000 in its first year of crypto fundraising

  • Joined The Giving Block’s Arts & Culture Impact Index Fund to increase its overall return-on-investment

Speaking to people about our mission for 15 minutes is much more effective for fundraising than a grant application. The crypto community is more open to that type of engagement. These are opportunities where organizations like us are better positioned to showcase our mission.
