Project:
Our client is a philanthropic organization that develops and manages software to support large-scale grantmaking for donors focused on humanity’s long-term future.

The organization operates as a “virtual fund,” streamlining the submission and evaluation of applications to help donors identify high-impact opportunities. With backing from early grant support and partnerships through donor-advised funds, it now aims to expand its current grant evaluation system into a secure, standalone application, providing philanthropists, advisors, and applicants with a more seamless and trusted platform for decision-making.
