Their organization empowers charities, not-for-profit’s and philanthropists to leverage the power of blockchain to maximise their reach and impact in the global communities they serve.

Maximizing social impact globally through utilizing blockchain's ability to reshape communities. Chris and Renee will both be at the #PAY Symposium & Exposition August 20 - 21, 2019 at Caesars Palace Las Vegas. Chris Zhong will be moderating a panel of blockchain experts and will discussing how blockchain can be used to generate social impact, driven by the three pillars: Education, Partnerships and Research & Innovation.

BPF Blockchain Education

This is a blockchain education course designed with philanthropists in mind. 

Created by a team experienced in blockchain technology and research, this course will not only provide a detailed overview of blockchain technology, but also help our partners understand why it could be a great tool for their philanthropic organizations. 

BPF Research and Advisory

Research is especially important to early-stage technologies like blockchain as validation is needed to determine whether it can truly drive impact. Through a series of research articles, we examine the viability of using blockchain technology in a number of sectors including charitable giving, voting and energy. 

By looking at real-world case studies of companies currently using blockchain technology, we can help companies navigate the use of this technology. To explore topics we’ve researched, check out our articles on using blockchain technology for charitable giving and election voting.

BPF Technology

We have been working on a cryptocurrency donation platform which will feature our NFP Alliance partners and allow users to make cryptocurrency donations to charities globally. Through this donation platform, we hope to bring awareness of cryptocurrency as another avenue for not-for-profits to receive support. We expect our donation platform to go live in the first half of 2019.
