Making charitable giving transparent and direct
Aid Registry connects donors directly to charities. You pick a campaign, donate, and we buy exactly what the charity asked for. Simple as that.
Mission
Make it easy to give, and easy to see where your money went.
Donors should know where their money goes. Charities should have an easy way to say what they need. We built Aid Registry to connect the two with full accountability.
Vision
A world where giving is simple, direct, and you can see exactly what happened.
Americans give hundreds of billions to charity each year, but too much gets lost to middlemen and overhead. We think donors and charities should be connected directly, with nothing in between.
What We Stand For
Core values
These guide how we build the platform and run the company.
Radical Transparency
Every donation is traceable. Donors see exactly what was purchased and which organization received it. No black boxes.
Direct Impact
Donations fund specific items charities have requested, not general operating budgets. You know what your money bought.
Efficiency First
We keep overhead low so more of your donation actually reaches the people who need it.
Community Trust
Every charity on Aid Registry is verified against IRS data and reviewed by our team before going live.
