What if your charitable impact could outlive you? What if today’s donations could help generations to come? These ambitions are the foundation of EverGive.
When you donate £10 to a charity today, that money typically gets spent quickly – often within the same year. And while your donation can make an immediate difference (and immediate impact matters!), that’s where your actual contribution ends: the money is gone, and your impact stops there.
This model has served philanthropy for centuries, but it does have a fundamental limitation: it’s finite. The good you do is ultimately constrained by the amount you can give right now.
For charities, this creates a perpetual fundraising cycle: each year, they start from zero, regardless of how successful their previous campaigns were. And that uncertainty makes it hard to plan long-term initiatives or invest in sustainable solutions.
Donors can contribute to their chosen charity on EverGive through a one-time donation or a recurring monthly plan. (EverGive supports multiple currencies, including GBP, USD, EUR, and CAD – making it easy for people worldwide to donate.)
Unlike normal donations, the sum you give isn’t spent immediately: instead, it’s invested in Bitcoin securely through our regulated charity partner (Donor Advised Fund). This approach allows your donation to benefit from Bitcoin's historical long-term growth potential, which means it can grow in value over time.
Each month, a portion of the fund’s growth is distributed to selected charities. Unlike traditional donations that are spent once and gone, this model provides a steady stream of funding to causes that matter. In the initial period, these payouts will be funded by grants from partner foundations while the Bitcoin investments develop.
Security and transparency are at the heart of EverGive. Donations are managed by an independent registered charity, guaranteeing accountability and compliance. Funds are securely held in multi-signature institutional custody – preventing unauthorised access and ensuring long-term stability.
We believe Bitcoin is perfect for long-term charitable giving because it has three unique qualities: it’s transparent, independent from any single authority, and limited in supply (only 21 million Bitcoin will ever exist). That limited supply means its value has historically grown over time – unlike regular money which loses value to inflation. By using Bitcoin, in other words, your donations can actually increase in value over time, helping future generations even more.
The transparency of Bitcoin also means anyone can verify exactly where donations are held, when they’re distributed to charities, and how the fund is performing over time. This solves one of charity’s biggest challenges – trust – by letting donors see exactly what happens with their money.
EverGive empowers donors to build a legacy of giving. Whether you’re passionate about education, healthcare, environmental causes, or humanitarian aid, EverGive ensures that your contributions continue making a difference long after you give.
