Lots of people dream of changing the world, of making it a much better place. But many of them lack the opportunity or the courage to take a life-changing step to become a philathropist. Philanthor is puting a philanthrophy foundation on a blockchain, so everyone gets to pursue the dream of contributing to the greater good.
Philantropic missions always come from the goodness of one’s heart, and we can only be thankful that such non-profit organizations exist to help individuals and communities achieve their goals and lead better lives. But sadly for these organizations, there is no easy and effective means for them to monitor their donations, much more the impact their donations have. Traditional philanthropy doesn’t work that way. It is far less capable of building trust because transactions are not made visible. To get reports, one needs to go through paperwork which can be easily altered and can take a long time to product. In many instances, donors do not get the real picture their donations.
Philanthor sees the need for philanthropy, not just because it's a social responsibility, but because there's more to do to improve life on earth. With philanthropy efforts in mind, Philanthor with the help of the Blockchain technology is aiming to help those efforts. The use of Blockchain is a good step because Blockchain is decentralized, it significantly reduces transactions costs, it removes the need for intermediaries, it provides secure yet transparent transaction, activities are documented, and it provides access and connections to a lot of people wherever they are. Note, that activities are documented, secured, and transparent, these factors help greatly in measuring the social impact of the philanthropic efforts. Why? Because every activity is securely documented, it removes doubt and it adds trust that the funds donated or raised are bound to be used in the right way. Also, it's transparent, so members will have the right to access how their donations are used and if it was used the way it was meant to be, at the same time members can see it in real-time how, when, where, who, and for what the funds are subjected to so one can already formulate based on the ongoing activities and the results so far, the social impact.
Since Philanthor will be based on the Blockchain Technology, Philanthor have created their own token with a symbol of PTH. Unlike other currencies that usually moves in just one direction in philanthropy, the use of PTH will provide benefits and more uses but all, of course, is directed to the efforts for philanthropy. As token holders, they become part of the community which will allow them to be part of important talks and decisions for Philanthor's causes. At the same time, as a member of the community, aside from influencing the type of causes to support, members with the PTH tokens can create awareness for causes that they think need attention and donations. PTH tokens will also be subject to re-donation, one can give the tokens to a non-profit organization which can then be sold to raise additional funds. Aside from re-donating the tokens, PTH tokens may be entitled to benefits from goods and services from companies who will donate and will be part of the Philanthor community because of their social responsibility or their own social effort.
Members of the Philanthor community will be given the right to create their Philanthropist profile in which members can indicate the type of causes that they want to create awareness or support. To give you a bigger picture of the use of funds, Philanthor aims to distribute the funds allocated for the causes in percentages which are 40% for Research Grants, 25% on Impact Investments, 15% Charities and Hardships, and 20% Scholarships.
