As a seasoned cryptocurrency investor and tech enthusiast with roots deeply entrenched in Silicon Valley, I find Ripple’s decision to join the Pledge 1% philanthropy movement not only commendable but also strategically sound. With over a decade of witnessing the rise and fall of numerous blockchain projects, I can confidently say that Ripple’s commitment to promoting social change through its corporate actions is a testament to their long-term vision and resilience in an ever-evolving market.
Based in San Francisco, the enterprise blockchain firm Ripple has declared they will be partaking in the Pledge 1% corporate philanthropy initiative.
The business is committed to fostering advancements in blockchain technology, as well as improving the availability of financial services, while also pursuing other forward-thinking projects.
This initiative, established in 2014, seeks to motivate businesses at different stages to contribute to worthy causes by donating a portion of their sales, earnings, or resources (time). Businesses opting to participate in this movement can choose to donate 1% of their products, profits, or time.
Roughly 18,000 companies from more than 130 countries have now joined the Pledge 1% initiative.
Over the last ten years, it has successfully sparked billions of dollars in new charitable giving, and more than sixty billion-dollar startups (unicorns) have come on board.
Among the notable figures participating are Cloudflare and Reddit. Additionally, tekFinder, a leading tech needs agency, joined the initiative earlier today.
Earlier today, Pledge 1% rang the Nasdaq closing bell to celebrate its 10-year anniversary.
According to Ripple, their choice to become part of a widely-supported initiative stems from their aim to foster substantial transformation.
Ripple has now donated a total of $180 million to various partners and initiatives since 2018.
According to a report from U.Today, the San Francisco-based firm generously contributed $100,000 to aid those affected by the catastrophic flooding in Brazil that occurred in May.
In October, Ripple entered into an alliance with the International Rescue Committee (IRC), promising a grand total of $1 million.
Earlier this year, the company was recognized as the leader in the realm of crypto payments.
