Working on a charity + website (not live yet) that allows you to centrally manage your charity donations.

I'm in Germany so I'm working on a Germany-specific solution for now.

- you choose from a list of charities (right now I'm working with the list from the https://dzi.de plus a few such as Wikimedia Deutschland)

- you setup a recurring donation to our bank account

- we redistribute the money according to your split

- no spam in your email and snail mail

- one pdf at the end of the year for your tax returns

I'm not planning on taking any cut of the donations obviously, so this will be a fully self-funded project at first, but I'll reach-out to foundations once I'm up and running.

The URL will be https://super.giving/ (not setup yet, should be fairly soon).

I'm also planning on releasing the source code as open-source.

I'd be happy to hear your feedback, either here or via email :)

Are you experiencing the HN hug of death or is your website down? Either way I'm super interested in what you're building and I'd love to use it but I cannot reach your link at the moment. Good luck with the endeavor either way and thank you for building this.

  • Happy you're interested! I haven't set-up the website yet but feel free to reach-out via email (you'll find it in my hn profile)
