The Giveth Matching Pool is raising funds for future donation matching to <a href="https://docs.giveth.io/dapps/projectVerification/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">verified projects</a> on Giveth! It is a one-stop-shop for donors who want to ensure their donation has a broad impact. Our <a href="https://docs.giveth.io/whatisgiveth/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">vision</a> for the Future of Giving is a world in which giving is effortless and people are rewarded for making positive change. Give to donation.eth, make a difference for public goods, and get rewarded with <a href="https://medium.com/giveth/what-if-giving-gave-back-using-web3-to-evolve-philanthropy-a8500b7636ce" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">GIVbacks</a>. Donations to this project as well as funds sent directly to the donation.eth multisig on <a href="https://etherscan.io/address/0x6e8873085530406995170da467010565968c7c62" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mainnet</a> or <a href="https://blockscout.com/xdai/mainnet/address/0x6e8873085530406995170Da467010565968C7C62/transactions" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gnosis Chain</a> are eligible for GIVbacks. In both cases, 100% of the funds collected will be distributed to verified projects on Giveth. Note: only donations in tokens on the <a href="https://forum.giveth.io/t/givbacks-token-list/253" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">GIVbacks token list</a> are eligible for GIVbacks. The donation.eth multisig is a 7/15 multisig managed by core Giveth team members. Once we have reached our goal of $500,000 we will begin to distribute the funds to verified projects on Giveth at the end of each 2-week donation round. The intention of the raise goal is to ensure we have enough funds to provide significant matching ($10-20k) every 2 weeks for a full year (26 total rounds). The exact details of how the donations will be distributed are to-be-determined.&nbsp; If you want to help us design the system for allocating these matching funds, please weigh-in with your comments <a href="https://forum.giveth.io/t/givmatching-idea-generation-on-how-to-distribute-funds/346" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">in our forum</a>. We’ll keep you posted with the results in project updates! Note: We are not matching funds to this project, we are using these funds to provide additional funding to other verified projects.
