About Aid Required
Building the future of transparent and efficient humanitarian aid distribution
Our Mission
Aid Required exists to solve the critical challenges facing humanitarian aid distribution today: lack of transparency, high transaction costs, slow disbursements, and limited accountability. By leveraging blockchain technology on the Stellar network, we enable NGOs, charities, and foundations to distribute aid with unprecedented speed, transparency, and efficiency.
Why Blockchain for Aid?
💰 Reduce Costs
Traditional aid distribution loses up to 30% to intermediaries and administrative overhead. Blockchain enables direct transfers, cutting costs to less than 1%.
⏱️ Increase Speed
What takes days or weeks through banking systems happens in minutes on blockchain. Get aid to those who need it when they need it.
🔎 Ensure Transparency
Every transaction is recorded immutably on-chain. Donors can track exactly where their contributions go, building trust and accountability.
🌏 Enable Global Reach
Blockchain transcends borders and banking infrastructure. Reach beneficiaries in remote or underbanked regions with ease.
Our Approach
Built on Stellar
We chose the Stellar blockchain for its speed (2-5 second finality), low cost (fractions of a cent), and purpose-built features for financial inclusion. Stellar's distributed ledger ensures every transaction is transparent and verifiable.
Compliance First
We understand that NGOs and charities operate in highly regulated environments. Aid Required is built with compliance at its core, supporting KYC/AML requirements, audit trails, and regulatory reporting.
Partner Network
We integrate with trusted local payment partners (mobile money, banks, fintechs) to enable beneficiaries to receive funds in their preferred format, whether that's cash, mobile money, or bank transfer.
Our Impact
Since launching our pilot program, Aid Required has partnered with NGOs and charities across three continents to deliver aid more effectively.
