As traditional aid mechanisms strain under the weight of inefficiency, high costs, and lack of transparency, a quiet revolution is taking place—driven by blockchain technology and decentralized finance (DeFi). In Crypto Philanthropy: How DeFi is Impacting Nonprofits in Developing Regions, legal practitioner and nonprofit advisor Allan presents a timely and insightful guide to the growing intersection between crypto and humanitarian work.

This book explores how nonprofits in emerging economies are leveraging digital wallets, stablecoins, and decentralized platforms to overcome barriers such as limited banking infrastructure, inflation, and corruption. Drawing from real-world examples in Africa and beyond—including projects by GiveDirectly, Binance Charity, and Kotani Pay—this book demonstrates how crypto is not just a fundraising tool but a vehicle for empowerment and systemic change.

Inside, readers will find:

  • A clear breakdown of DeFi and its relevance to the nonprofit sector
  • Practical use cases of crypto in aid distribution, financial inclusion, and program delivery
  • Tools and platforms designed to support NGOs in low-resource settings
  • Key implementation challenges including volatility, literacy gaps, and regulation
  • Forward-looking trends shaping the future of digital philanthropy
  • Whether you're a nonprofit leader, development expert, donor, or tech entrepreneur, this book offers essential knowledge and actionable insights for engaging with the next frontier of global giving.
