A Secured Distributed Ledger Based Fundraising Framework Using Smart Contracts

We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give. Giving is not about making a donation, it's about making a difference. To make this process highly accountable and transparent we propose the following system. The solution we have been working on consists of a blockchain-based application that brings the donor and the fundraiser on a common platform. From a broader perspective, this application can be scaled up to meet national or global level fundraising with accountability as one of its core pillars. Hence this motivated us to learn how crowd-sourcing and fundraising happens and how we could provide higher authenticity and accountability with the onset of Blockchain Technology. This paper proposes a blockchain-based charity framework and describes the platform's design pattern, architecture, and operational phase. Additionally, we plunge into how businesses can make use of our proposed system for their Corporate Social Responsibility. By sandwiching a layer of Blockchain Technology between each stakeholder, we affirm change that empowers people in the right direction.
