Charities
NFTs represent a paradigm shift in how we think about digital assets and digital ownership. We used to think of digital assets as files that could be copied and shared without limitations. Now, with NFTs, we can think of them as one-of-a-kind, scarce, and valuable items whose ownership can be verified and traded.
One of the most common uses of NFTs today is for charities and fundraising. Having NFTs for sale on an organization’s website or hosting an auction with basic payment options like credit cards, makes it easier for anyone who isn’t crypto savvy to buy one and donate to a good cause.
This could be part of a company’s social responsibility program, or a joint effort with a non-profit, or a socially aware organization.
Charity And E-Commerce
Assume you’re the owner of an online cosmetics store. On “National Health Day”, give your customers the option, when purchasing an item, to donate a certain amount and receive an NFT in return. The proceeds will be given to a foundation with a focus on a healthy lifestyle. During the promotion period, people who own those NFTs will enter a draw to win products or special prizes.
Special commemorative NFTs can also be dropped directly into the wallets of the NFT holders to unlock additional benefits. Aside from contributing to a good cause, NFT holders will have the opportunity to receive store products, as well as the chance to win larger prizes after a draw.
Fundraising And Loyalty Program
Directly engage in charitable activities for a school for disabled children that needs money for new equipment or to expand its facilities. Take any creation by the kids of the school and mint it as an NFT and sell it on the organization’s website. Each NFT could be reproduced in multiple copies. NFTs could be auctioned off at a live event or simply sold on your organization’s website.
NFTs could be auctioned off at a live event or simply sold on your organization’s website. NFTs could be promoted using the organization’s social media as well as those of children’s family, friends, and supporters.
To encourage organizations and individuals to purchase NFTs and generally support the organization, not only for this activity but also in the future, create a loyalty program where sponsors are acknowledged for their support. That could be done by creating a three-tier range of NFTs; Silver, Gold, and Platinum, and offering them during an annual ceremony to cause supporters as an acknowledgment of their support.
Ambassador Base Fundraising
Engaging people with the right profile is the most effective way to make an impact. Raise money for a good cause by collaborating with a well-known actor, chef, singer, model, or football player who has a large following. Assume you need to raise funds for ecological succession following a large fire.
Mint a collection of NFTs designed by the ambassador with the help of a digital artist. The NFTs could feature the relationship and the sensitivity of the ambassador to the environment. The NFTs could be auctioned off using an NFT marketplace, or on the organization’s website using a simple credit card payment.
