NFT Projects Venturing into Fundraising and Charities supporting a Good Cause

NFTs have taken the world of metaverse by storm. Not only artists and celebrities are making headlines with their maiden NFT drops, but the space is exponentially growing in support of good social causes. More than a dozen NFT projects exist head-on for charitable and social causes like gender equality, women empowerment and stand as a crusader for climate crisis raising funds for environmental protection projects. Many decentralized systems and blockchain technology-backed NFT projects are gaining momentum, with the metaverse discourse generously spread across the globe. One classic example is an Ocean Front NFT sold by artist Beeple for $6 million. The proceeds were donated to The Open Earth Foundation, an NGO raising funds to develop open digital infrastructure for better planet management.

While artists, celebrities, and rare collectibles are the predominant face of NFTs, there are NFT projects minted and dropped to bring in revolutionary changes. Some NFT projects focus on goodwill and promote a social cause.

Maxity — One-Stop Shop for Charitable Causes

Maxity — the world’s first DAO-based NFT marketplace, announced its official launch on 31st March 2022 exclusively for good causes, philanthropy-minded NFT projects, and charities.

The marketplace will likely cover humanitarian and environmental issues, providing charities with an exciting new route to raise funds through impactful NFT projects to make the planet a better place to live.
