Running effective grant programs is challenging, especially when distributing significant funding across multiple projects. GoodDollar, the blockchain-based Universal Basic Income project serving over 700,000 users across 222+ countries, experienced this firsthand during their GG23 round where they distributed $81,000 among 25 projects.
Tracking project progress, monitoring deliverables, and ensuring accountability across diverse initiatives became increasingly complex. Grant administrators struggled with fragmented information, scattered updates, and difficulty assessing real impact—making it hard to ensure community funds were being used effectively and transparently.
GoodDollar has partnered with Karma GAP to transform their grant management process through a centralized, intelligent platform that brings clarity and efficiency to funding operations.
