Only U.S. citizens and residents can make political donations. These are the people politicians care about the most.

Voting and billing addresses add power to pledges by proving people are real (data is never shared without your consent).

Added Bonus!

Accountability allows for certain results - no more wondering if your contribution makes a difference.

Recycling donations means you don’t lose money if you lose the fight. You can keep going forever, unlike lobbyists.

Have lasting power. Politicians don’t forget about money they could have. A facebook post may be forgotten, your pledge won’t be.

Issue-based donations finally allow small donations to have a voice.

Voting rates go up! On average, those who give are several times more likely to vote. If we make giving better, voting will be better, too.

Level the playing field without relying on Congress, the Supreme Court or a constitutional amendment.

Non-partisanship comes standard. Why worry about “Democrat” or “Republican”? Politics should be about issues.

Social Good
