It's important to us that donors can trust that their donations are being used in the best way possible. That they reach legitimate projects with real impact.
All organizations are screened and vetted by our dedicated impact team. They do thorough research and due diligence to find powerful, credible grassroots organizations working to save our planet.
From continuous follow-up on projects to examining them once completed – financial transparency and accountability are core to our model.
By helping with marketing and securing continuous funding we let organizations on Milkywire save precious time to focus on their important work.
