ONHelp

There are 10 million NGOs that are not able to implement their high-impact projects because their MAIN obstacle is the lack of funds. On the other hand, the primary reason people who are willing to but don’t donate is because they don’t have the financial resources.

ONHelp allows anybody to fund the NGO project of their choice, without giving money or any kind of information, but with just a click. We convert your donated hours after clicking on the “Donate” button in our web page (from any device: laptop, tablet, phone), into money, through a crypto-system that accumulates a small part of the non-used computing power of devices.

Therefore, ONHelp disrupts the donation system allowing any project to come true. There are even more devices than people in the world. ONHelp grows exponentially as you just need to have a device and internet, is easy to scale to other countries.

There are 10 millions of NGOs that are not able to implement their high-impact projects because their MAIN obstacle is the lack of funds. In the other hand, and according to the 2018 Global Trends in Giving report, the primary reason people don’t donate to charity is because they don’t have the financial resources to do so, but they are willing to. So they need to find an easy, secure and non-monetary way to help the NGOs.

We clearly make great social impact by turning into reality NGO projects. We'll focus in offering to our Digital Volunteers (millennials with social and volunteering interests) a wide range of projects that will cover all the SDGs (our goal in the medium term). Right now we are launching the platform with 2 projects: 

1. Safe drinking water for poor families in Peru:

Installation of chlorination systems in Peru and training (for a long term impact). This project will help 36 kids, 60 ppl in total. 

Data: 1 out of 4 people in Peru don’t have access to safe drinking water. 

We could fund this whole project if we reach 6,000,000 donated hours.

NGO: Islas de Paz Peru

SDG: 1, 3, 6,12

2. "'Be a hero for our puppies!"

For the care, maintenance and rescue of abandoned puppies in the Metropolitan Region. For every 100,000 donated hours from all of us, a dog will have access to a good quality life: food, vaccination, sterilization, deworming, health and psychological care.

Data: There are an estimated 2.5 million stray dogs in Chile and the canine population is growing faster than the human population

NGO: Huella Animal - Chile

SDG: 12, 15

ONHelp allows anybody to fund the NGO project of their choice, without giving money or any kind of information, but with just a click. We convert your donated hours after clicking on the “Donate” button in our web page (from any device: laptop, tablet, phone), into money, through a crypto-system that accumulates a small part of the non-used computing power of devices.

We get revenues by converting the cryptocurrencies we get from the computing power of our Digital Volunteers (DVs - persons who click in "donate" in our web or app platform; they don't give us money). And after paying the expenses of the project, we fund the NGO projects our DVs selected.

Therefore, ONHelp disrupts the donation system allowing any project to come true. There are even more devices than people in the world. ONHelp grows exponentially as you just need to have a device and internet, is easy to scale to other countries.

ONHelp is a project based on a new revolutionary way of NGO financing, through a platform to which anyone can access from any device, be it a cellular, laptop or tablet, and decide to which project they want to fund without needing to give MONEY! ONHelp allows anybody to donate and make social impact, with just one click, creating, through technology, “The New Digital Volunteers”! Our vision is to create a world where every high-impact project can be reality, even in the poorest places, through a community that cares about others and want to make a change.

We clearly differ from volunteering models, which require time and / or physical effort, or direct donations, which require money from your bank accounts. Also, from other crypto-initiatives like BOINC of the University of Berkeley, California-USA. and from Cadenahumana-México, not only because we focus in UX but also because we use "merger mining", that allow us to be even more profitable as we can get several cryptocurrencies with the same computer power. We seek to maintain ourselves as a secure platform with a good UX and with total transparency. So, as our Digital Volunteers only require internet and any devide, it's scalable to any country. Therefore we'll start with Chile and Peru, and then we plan to go to other countries.

How do I donate?

Log in or join the Digital Volunteers community anonymously, select the project and click on donate ... and let the hours pass (without closing the web page). The hours you donate, we convert them into money that goes to the NGOs!

- From any device: cellphone, laptop, tablet or CPU

- 100% secure

- Without giving money or information

- No need to download anything

- You can use your device without any problems

- Used electricity and internet are much less than netflix

Does it sound too good to be true? We thought the same! We explain it to you:

How does it work?

The main steps on how the donated hours convert into money are the following:

1. From your click to cryptocurrencies: When you click, you don’t give us money or information, but the non-used computing power of your device (you won’t feel any change when you give a part of it temporarily). We accumulate this computing power of our Digital Volunteers (they send it to our cloud servers), and through the ONHelp system (we optimize it), we obtain cryptocurrencies.

2. From cryptocurrencies to NGOs: there are different platforms, such as cryptoexchanges (minimizing commissions), that allow us to convert the cryptocurrencies into dollars and fund the NGO projects of your choice.

Because:

1. According to the 2018 Global Trends in Giving report, the primary reason people don’t donate to charity is because they don’t have the financial resources to do so (with the 43%), but they are willing to. So they need to find an easy, secure and non-monetary way to help the NGOs.

2. Our traction till now:

Our strategy includes an expectation campaign that already started in June and is a success as we got almost 100% more views than expected (70k) and people reached (445k), and the cost per thousand reached persons was really low (0.79 nuevos soles). The launch campaign will start in july and we plan to focus too in B2B:  as we can grow faster through them. 

These companies not only improve the client experience and add value to the service they give, but they can also make social impact with just a click. 

We fund the charity projects that these companies want WITHOUT GIVING US MONEY but through donated hours from our platform of your customers or employees. In short: they give us hours, we convert them into money and we give that back to them, after taking a small commission from those funds.

We are on our way of funding 2 projects: 

1. Safe drinking water for poor families in Peru: Installation of chlorination systems in Peru and training (for a long term impact). This project will help 36 kids, 60 ppl in total. 

2. "'Be a hero for our puppies!"

For the care, maintenance and rescue of abandoned puppies in the Metropolitan Region. For every 100,000 donated hours from all of us, a dog will have access to a good quality life: food, vaccination, sterilization, deworming, health and psychological care.

In one year or in 5, we could make great social impact by turning into reality so many charity projects in the world: from kids in Africa till immigrants from Venezuela. All will depend on the number of Digital Volunteers and our alliances with big corporations that will give us computer power (donated hours), that we'll convert them into money that will go to the projects.

1 YEAR: fund more than 3 projects. reach 1,000 Digital Volunteers

5 years: fund projects from 3 different continents. Reach 50,000 Digital Volunteers

1. Getting ppl to donate hours, make them feel part of a community. Cultural problem

2. Cloud servers. Tech problem.

1. Elaborate a complete Marketing Strategy, that is mainly digital (FB and IG for B2C; linkedin for B2B). We'll do constant ads campaigns to get more Digital Volunteers (DVs - persons who click in "donate" in our web or app platform; they don't give us money or make physical effort). We plan to recognize our best DV each week, as the millenials usually search for recognition in social media and they like to feel part of something meaningful.

We'll be in the main social and environmental events from Santiago and Lima, and also conferences from other countries (We've been in the last TNW Conference 2019). Through partnerships with foundations we plan to increase our exposure to our market too.

2. Thanks to Start-Up Chile we have US$ 10K of AWS credits. We plan to participate in other programs to expand those credits to US$100K.

N/A

1 full time: CEO

6 part time: CMO, CTO, COO, Community Manager, Designer, Social Media Analyst

7 in total

About our team, we cover all the fundamental areas, with experts in software development, advertisement and cryptography. We are the right team to carry out this project.

1.Fiorella-CEO: Specialized in Cryptography and Bitcoin (Princeton Univ); Passed all CFA Program exams; Managed a porfolio of $ 3.1 blln in FitchRatings-Perú.

2.Eder-CTO: 15 years of exp. in Software Development. Founder of OfficeVP, a digital marketing platform used by more than 2,000 companies in the USA.

3.Samantha-CMO: Leads ads campaigns of regional brands in Peru like BBVA, 7up and Mallplaza. 

4.Daniel-COO: 20 years of exp. in tech and innovation projects, including "IBD-app" for SYSCO. 

Both pairs of partners know each other from more than 15 years (Daniel Patroni and Eder Matienzo worked together in several app projects / Fiorella Torres and Samantha Ku met in high school and did some projects together). But these pair of partners joined when Daniel contacted me (Fiorella) with the idea of looking for something innovative, but at the same time, socially oriented. Daniel followed the articles I've been publishing about cryptocurrencies in the virtual magazine Punto-y-Coma.

The principal expenses: are related to advertisement (Facebook and IG) and cloud servers (Amazon, but we have US$10K AWS credits from Start-Up Chile) and human resources.

Funding: Winners of The S Factory program of Start-Up Chile, the leading accelerator in Latam, and one of the top 10 in the world. They have a strong local and international network. They are funding our project now with US$ 15,000.

Other achievements:

- Selected for the Green Latin American Awards 2019, which recognize sustainable projects and actions that stand out, among the category of Human development.

- Selected to be part of the Youth of UNESCO Programme, through the storytelling initiative about young change-makers with inspiring profiles and stories around the globe.

- Winners of TNW IGNITE. We are 1 of the 50 early stage startups across 10 industries in the world that showcased the innovative solution in front of the global tech scene in the 2019 TNW Conference. Also we were 1 of the 5 best startups selected to participate in the Pitch Battle.

-Winners of the "Comprometidos 2018" Challenge of LATAM and the Caribbean region, organized by UNESCO, Socialab and Ashoka, among more than 650 projects and 2,400 young people.

About our business model, we get revenues by converting the cryptocurrencies we get from the non-used computing power of our Digital Volunteers into dollars (DVs - persons who click in "donate" in our web or app platform; they don't give us money or make physical effort). 

And also, from the companies or foundations…., who give us hours (after the click) from their clients or employees, that we convert them into money. We get revenues by taking a commission from those funds.

And after paying the operating expenses of the project, we fund the NGO projects.

Main Clients:

B2C: everyone with access to internet and any device. But we'll focus in millenials (20-35 years old) within the socioeconomic type A and B, in the cities Lima, Santiago and Amsterdam. The cities we'll focus on will depend on the growing of each city of our Digital Volunteers (customers).

These DV will choose a NGO project from our portfolio.

B2B: companies who have a strong base of clients or employees, like telecom, crowdfunding and the Corporate Social Responsability areas of big corporations. As there are several synergies that can arise between them and the ONHelp platform. These companies not only improve the client experience and add value to the service they give, but they can also make social impact with just a click.

These DV could choose a NGO project from our portfolio or fund their own charity project.

Now Start-Up Chile is funding our initial phase of the project (pre-acceleration program of US$15,000). We are searching for seed capital.

There are even more devices than people in the world and 10 million NGOs worldwide with the main obstacle of lack of funds. ONHelp grows exponentially as you just need to have a device and internet in order to be a DV, is easy to scale to other countries. our first and big goal is to reach 5,000 digital volunteers, that is 0.1% of the internet users from Santiago.

With that number we can cover all our main expenses, and start funding NGO projects.

We estimate that if we reach 1% of them, we could generate approximately  US$ 300,000 in annual income and make a great social impact.

We’ve been doing big efforts to improve the brand and the confidence of our DV in ONHelp, by constantly participating and competing in different programs or challenges. Like the one organized by UNESCO and in May we went to the TNW conference.

We truly thing that SOLVE will improve the diffusion of our project (networking, easier to arrange meetings with big corporations and companies) and help us getting funds. Also, we could even have a partnership with SOLVE to fund its own charity projects by giving us hours from its volunteers or employers, without needing to give MONEY, any kind of information and SOLVE will becoming part of this new revolutionary way of NGO financing through the new emerging technologies.

Any company with a strong base of clients or employers, or lots of computers that could give us their idle computing power, with ZERO cost, and have a strong area of CSR:

1. Tech companies

2. Telecom companies

3. Crowdfunding

4. Others

ONHelp is a project based on a new revolutionary way of NGO financing, through a platform to which anyone can access from any device, be it a cellular, laptop or tablet, and decide to which project they want to donate.

Our vision is to create a world where every high-impact project can be reality, even in the poorest places, through a community that cares about others and want to make a change.

With the prize of US$ 25,000 we plan to expand to other countries and fund more projects around Latam in the short term.

The prize will allow us to do an ads campaign in other countries. To expand regionally. But also is about trust, SOLVE will also allow our Digital Volunteers (DV) to be more confident that their clicks will actually convert into social impact. We need to create a DV community.
