Fundraising Platform WhyDonate Helps Triodos Foundation With Crowdfunding

WhyDonate is a Whitelabel do-good crowdfunding platform and comes from ING’s start-up community. Charities can use this platform to activate the crowd and receive donations. After building its own platform for ING, WhyDonate investigated whether more companies would be interested in a similar service, and that is how the contact with Triodos Foundation started. This organization has been working with donation money since 1971 and wants to continue this in a contemporary way by involving the crowd.

Triodos Foundation helps facilitate the exchange of ideas between potential donors and those initiating projects. The organization supports initiatives that foster a healthy ecosystem by encouraging people to live harmoniously with nature. The organization specifically supports campaigns that are dedicated to Nature & Biodiversity, Agriculture, and Nutrition & Health.

Pleasant Journey

Ted van den Bergh, director of Triodos Foundation: “Working with WhyDonate to build our crowd-giving website GivetheChange.nl was a pleasant journey with surprises; the great thing is that the flexibility of

WhyDonate ensures that you arrive at the destination experiencing a kind of homecoming. They have done most of the work, but we experience the result as if we built it ourselves. “

More organizations

WhyDonate now has, in addition to its own platform, the strategy to build social platforms with and for companies, municipalities, and other institutions. “Givethechange.nl is the first platform we have built on the basis of this new strategy,” says co-founder Niels Corver. “I hope and expect that we will be able to follow even more new and innovative platforms next year.”

Using companies and organizations as the platform to support corporate social responsibility. In addition, they want to promote connection in the local community in this way by supporting, among other things, local charities.

Corporate Social Responsibility

More and more companies are looking for solutions to involve employees in their Corporate Social Responsibility. When choosing an employer, talents no longer only look at salary, education, and career opportunities but also at which way an organization contributes to society.

In addition to the well-known collection campaigns, in which employees, for example, run to raise money for a good cause, there is increasing demand for donations in kind. “The WhyDonate platforms can now also be expanded with modules to donate hours or free working days,” says Niels Corver.
