This semester provided us the opportunity to be a part of a great experiment. This experiment mixed history, blogging, cryptocurrency, and charity into a complex mission. The goal of our semester seemed to vary, depending on who you asked. However, I took it as a way to learn about history, the cryptocurrency market, and how nonprofit organizations tend to operate. The class allowed us to explore and experiment in a realm which is new, and someone concerning to some. It also allowed us to help an organization, rather than just studying facts because they were facts. It created an organic, “living” experience, where people could think outside the box. While we did not race $30,000 or $1,000,000, we did raise a significant amount of money which will go to a great cause. I hope this course can act as a foundation to other courses, and organizations which have decided to explore this realm of opportunity.
Proposals for Donations: How and where would you dispense $10,000, $100,000, $1,000,000, and $10,000,000
$10,000: I think the easiest proposal to propose would be for $10,000. While a donation of $10,000 is a lot of money, its parameters, and options are somewhat limited compared to that of 10,000,000. A donation of $10,000 dollars could help local community service groups who are trying to get there organization going. These funds could drastically help their goals, and needs. While $10,000 would be a generous donation to a large museum, its impact would not be the same, compared to if it went to a small, young organization. $10,000 could also help an organization bring on an intern, or part-time employee, who could advance the organizations progress.
$100,000: While $10,000 would be a great donation to a small, young organization, $100,000 dollars seems to start bringing larger organizations into play. I think $100,000 dollars could help a struggling organizations, however it could also play an essential role in an organizations investments. $100,000 seems to be where a financial planner, and accountant would definitely be needed in the process. These individuals could assist you in providing the best product that fits your goals. I would either pick a failing smaller organization, or provide the assets in a fund that could grow, and help a moderate size organization to grow in the future.
$1,000,000: This donation would play an essential role to any organization. However it mostly would be best for investments. Also a donation this size definitely starts to bring attention to an organization. This could allow a large organization to provide financial security for the future, and begin to allow the organization to make significant advances.
$10,000,000: This large amount of money could do many things for various organizations, both large and small. It could allow a large failing organization to have a second chance, while also it could provide the funds required for a small organization to grow substantially. It also could be used to development, or rebuild infrastructure of an organization. This infrastructure could be physical in regards to repairs of a facility, or digital in the realm of documenting artifacts that could be posted online for millions to experience.
