What is betterplace?

betterplace is a global internet platform that connects individuals, organisations and companies directly with one another.

On the platform, individuals, organisations and companies present development projects for which they need support. Others observe, discuss and evaluate these projects and eventually choose to support some of them: with money, donations in kind, time, know-how, and - on the platform the most valuable resource of all - their trust. In return they receive continuous multimedia feedback and the most motivating experience: that even small contributions can have lasting, positive results.

betterplace thrives on a self-regulating community - on selective networks creating trust, on the global exchange of constructive ideas and on the transparency of its users and projects: grassroots initiatives enlist support for their work, companies sponsor projects as part of their CSR and charities reach out to new donors.

This is how it works

People present themselves, the project and those who benefit from it on the platform. Potential supporters search the platform for projects they find interesting and worthy of support.

Through the platform all users can communicate directly with one another, transfer money and know-how, coordinate donations in kind and volunteering.

Every person responsible for a project commits himself to give the supporters feedback – in text and image - about the project and its progress.
