The challenge
Most crowdfunding ends at payment: donors give and never find out what happened to the money. HopeWorks had to make every naira traceable without making the platform hard to use for donors, volunteers or the communities running campaigns.
My role
I built the platform end to end: the product design, the front end, and the escrow and milestone logic behind it.
What I built
- 01
Milestone-based escrow: funds are released step by step, never all at once
- 02
Five platform roles, including volunteers, independent project-manager auditors and administrators
- 03
Field-evidence uploads that an auditor reviews before funds are released
- 04
Campaigns mapped to the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals
- 05
A clearly disclosed 5% platform fee
Stack
- React
- Vite
- Vercel
