A gift is given in a moment.
Then most charitable dollars sit idle for years.
Ours go to work the day they arrive.
And they give every month.
The Bitbybit Charitable Foundation sponsors donor-advised funds. We accept, invest, and grant each contribution made while offering new investment opportunities. Every donor is granted maximum flexibility with a fund that can be granted in full at any time, directed to any approved cause, and allocated across investment tiers to match how they give.
How giving flows
The life of a gift.
An irrevocable gift
A donor contributes cash, securities, or digital assets. The Foundation takes ownership and issues the donor's written acknowledgment. From that point, the assets are committed to charity.
Invested on arrival
The Foundation invests each contribution as it settles. Assets are held with institutional custodians, in the Foundation's name, from the first day.
Income paid monthly
On the Conservative and Moderate tiers, investment income is paid to the donor's chosen charities every month, beginning with the first cycle. Organizations receive support they can budget against.
The Growth tier is managed by a fiduciary advisor. Distributions are made strictly when recommended.
Principal granted in full
Donors recommend grants at any time, and the Foundation reviews and issues each one. There is no lockup and no holding period. The full balance is always grantable.
Venture philanthropy
Giving that can grow before it gives.
Some donors want their giving to back what comes next. Through the Foundation's venture philanthropy program, charitable capital is deployed into companies vetted for charitable purpose, and every dollar of proceeds returns to giving.
The Foundation vets every company
Each opportunity passes the Foundation's charitable-purpose review before any donor sees it. Donors choose only from the approved list.
Donors recommend. The Foundation invests.
The Foundation is the investor of record in every deployment, whether structured as equity, a SAFE, or a recoverable grant.
Proceeds return to charity
When an investment succeeds, proceeds flow back to the donor's fund to be granted or redeployed. No proceeds are ever returned to the donor.
Proceeds return to the fund to be granted again — never to the donor.
For charities
Support that shows up every month.
Income you can plan on
Distributions arrive monthly for as long as donors direct them to you. Predictable support, suited to operating budgets.
Gifts that become endowments
Elect to route a portion of incoming grants into a professionally managed endowment. Recurring gifts build permanent capital for your organization.
Receipts, records, verification
The Foundation issues acknowledgments and grant letters and maintains an auditable record of every distribution it makes.
Recipient organizations are IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) public charities, approved by the Foundation. If that describes yours, we would like to hear about your work.

Governance & transparency
Structured to be checked.
Four commitments, built into the structure of the Foundation itself.
Every asset belongs to the Foundation
Contributions are irrevocable. Title passes to the Foundation at the moment of gift and remains with the Foundation until granted.
Donors advise. The Foundation decides.
Grantmaking and investment authority rest solely with the Foundation's board. Donors and their advisors hold advisory privileges, as the law requires.
Institutional custody throughout
Assets are held by qualified custodians, segregated from operating funds, with multi-party approval required for every movement.
Verified, not asserted
Account balances and every distribution are maintained on a continuous, auditable record. What the Foundation reports can be independently checked.
Impact
The ledger opens with our first grant cycle.
When grantmaking begins, this page will report income paid, grants issued, and endowments established, as they happen.
