Charity money follows the news cycle. I built a Blink that splits it evenly instead
This is a submission for Weekend Challenge: Generosity Edition What I Built Generosity has a concentration problem. When a disaster happens, attention collapses onto whichever organisation is most visible that week, and money follows attention. Three charities can be doing equally good work in the same disaster zone, and one of them gets the donations because it got the news cycle. The donor…
In a recent submission for the DEV Weekend Challenge: Generosity Edition, a developer created a Solana Blink called "OneClickGood" that automatically splits charitable donations evenly among multiple disaster-relief organizations. This innovative solution addresses the issue of generosity being concentrated on whichever charity receives the most attention during a crisis.
Instead of splitting donations manually across multiple websites and checkout forms, OneClickGood streamlines the process with a single click. This single transaction, which utilizes three SystemProgram.transfer instructions, ensures that the donation is evenly distributed to three vetted organizations - the American Red Cross, Direct Relief, and GlobalGiving - without favoring any one recipient.
The Blink also includes an SPL Memo that records the intended split on the ledger, allowing donors to audit their donations without needing to trust the developer's intentions. By encoding the intent directly on the blockchain, OneClickGood provides transparency and accountability for every charitable contribution.
