Starting something that has a positive impact is incredibly difficult. We don't spend a lot of time focusing on positive change-makers in the media and who they are. This makes the regular person believe that they can't make an impact, but in fact, these changemakers are just like them with one difference: they took action. This podcast aims to inspire that first step to taking action on something you're passionate about and will make the world a better place.

Using blockchain to make donations more transparent.
In this episode I interview JonJon Clark and Jason Smythe cofounders of an organization called Wildcards. Wildcards is build using blockchain technology, and helps to create transparency within the charity sector.
About Wildcards: Wiidcards connects global conservation organizations to users. Social, gamified, and transparent giving. You can become the guardian of a wildcard by simply clicking buy on any of the listed wildcards. Wildcards are always for sale since anyone can purchase them at anytime for their current sale price. When someone purchases a wildcard, they are required to immediately set a sale price for that wildcard. This ensures wildcards are always for sale. The technology underneath Wild Cards helps to trace every transaction that happens to each token, making it easy to understand what is being donated and where the money is being used.
In this episode we cover:
Their conservation experience in South Africa
Why transparency is needed within the non profit area
What is Blockchain and why is it important?
I hope you enjoy the episode!
