[Endaoment](http://app.endaoment.org) is a nonprofit community foundation & public charity built on the [Ethereum](https://ethereum.org/en/) blockchain, allowing anyone to donate their digital assets to any qualified 501(c)(3) U.S. nonprofit organization, and over 3500 international organizations thanks to Endaoment's relationship with US 501(c)(3) GlobalGiving.

**Our mission is to encourage and manage the charitable giving of cryptocurrency.**

We're a California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation, federally tax-exempt under IRS revenue code section 501(c)(3). All donations to Endaoment or and of Endaoment's Funds are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

Endaoment is supported by [our amazing community](https://discord.gg/endaoment) of donors and nonprofit professionals. Our newly revamped on-chain smart contracts have been audited by blockchain security consultants [LeastAuthority](https://leastauthority.com), and our application interfaces have been built to leverage services and tools native to Decentralized Finance. We'll continue to roll out more features that double-down on making a Community Foundation built for the DeFi community.

Don't just take our word for it - take a look at our [public audit report](https://leastauthority.com/static/publications/LeastAuthority_Endaoment_V2_Smart_Contracts_Final_Audit_Report.pdf). If you're looking for our initial public audit report (V1), you can find that [here](https://blog.openzeppelin.com/endaoment-audit).

You can create a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) on the Ethereum Mainnet [via our app](https://app.endaoment.org), [donate directly to any organization](https://app.endaoment.org/explore), and [join us on Discord](https://discord.gg/DHDyTGF) to ask questions and get involved in the community!
