Hi guys,
you have an interesting idea and a cool topic to link this with charity.
Explain, please, the part connected with charity. How will the directions for donations be selected? They will be determined by the participants of the site themselves or a certain general fund will be formed, where will the funds be transferred to a certain project that the team chooses?

Need to see the answers from the above queries also.
How will they eliminate the bias of funding a certain entity?
And hoping that they will fund the real deserving charity institutions.

Wow! Glad to see so many questions. Before I address this question, I just want to let you know that most of the questions I've seen are addressed in our whitepaper.

With that said, let me start by answering questions about the charities / fundraisers / organizations. Our platform is currently open to sponsored events. Because we are in our early stages, doing so allows us to gain valuable feedback about our current product so that we can make necessary improvements before rolling it out to the public. Our current fundraising event targets a cause in our state, California (in the USA). California has recently experienced major fires, so we aim to help those affected (You can support this fundraiser here! For this event, 100% of funds raised will be given to the organization.)

Our longterm vision is to enable anyone (from small groups to large charities) to fundraise on our site (similar to GoFundMe or YouCaring). Our founders' current plan is to focus on fundraising for "causes" (so charities, community efforts, etc.) rather than projects, so currently, we are NOT aiming to become another Kickstarter.

The main thing that will differentiate FundCru in the long-run is that merchants will be able to sell coupons and gift cards on our site. Our reason for doing so is explained more thoroughly in our whitepaper., but the short answer is that doing so will help fundraisers raise money faster and merchants obtain loyal customers.

Let me know if you have any more questions! If you want the speediest reply possible, please message us on Telegram.
