Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Impact Investing, and How Can It Help Nonprofits and Social Enterprises?

Impact investing refers to the practice of making investments with the dual aim of generating financial returns and creating positive social or environmental outcomes. For nonprofits, this type of funding can be transformational. Traditional donations are wonderful, but they are limited, and grants can be very hard to secure. By engaging in impact investing, nonprofits can access flexible, long-term funding from socially conscious investors who want to see their money actively making a difference.


For example, the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) reported that the global impact investing market has grown to over $715 billion. This highlights just how much capital is available for organizations that align with investors' values.


At PhilanthroBit, we help you leverage innovative tools like community bonds, equity crowdfunding and digital assets donations specifically designed to help nonprofits raise capital from impact-driven investors.

How does a Community Bond work?

Put simply, Community Bonds are loans from the community—both individuals and corporations—to a nonprofit. These loans help build or launch projects or provide cash flow capital. Terms can vary but are typically 3 to 7 years in length and pay a nominal interest rate, usually between 3% and 5%. Unlike donations, a community bond is a legal contract that serves a dual purpose: it allows socially conscious investors to earn a return while also having a positive local impact.


PhilanthroBit works with member nonprofits to design their marketing and outreach strategies prior to listing their loan offering on our Investment Portal.

How does Equity Crowdfunding work?

Equity crowdfunding allows U.S. startups to raise capital by offering shares of their company to a large number of investors via online investment portals such as PhilanthroBit's. It became possible through the JOBS Act, which expanded investment opportunities by allowing non-accredited investors to participate in funding rounds previously reserved for accredited investors. This democratization of investing helps startups raise up to $5 million annually under Regulation Crowdfunding.


Early stage start-ups and businesses often issue a SAFE, or Simple Agreement for Future Equity, which was originally designed by the YCombinator. A blockchain-based version of that would be a SAFT, a Simple Agreement for Future Token. Other types of investment offerings are also possible such as convertible bonds.


PhilanthroBit's Investment Portal enables social enterprises and startups to leverage this model by offering tokenized securities, combining crowdfunding with the power of blockchain technology for greater transparency and reach.

How Can PhilanthroBit's Business Plan Writing Advisory Benefit Small Businesses?

A strong business plan is the foundation of any successful startup or small business. It not only outlines your vision, goals, and strategies but also convinces potential investors that your business is worth their time and money. Writing a business plan, however, can be overwhelming—especially for first-time entrepreneurs. This is where PhilanthroBit’s business plan advisory comes in.


We work with startups to develop clear, compelling business plans that highlight key aspects like market opportunities, competitive analysis, and financial projections. Research shows that 70% of startups with detailed business plans are more likely to secure investment and grow. Whether you're pitching to venture capitalists, angel investors, or crowdfunding platforms, having a professional, investor-ready business plan is crucial.

Why Is PhilanthroBit's Financial Forecast Advisory Important for Nonprofits and Small Businesses?

PhilanthroBit offers financial forecast advisory services that cater to both small businesses and nonprofits. We help you create detailed, data-driven forecasts that project your revenue, expenses, and cash flow for years to come. Studies show that businesses with well developed financial forecasts are 50% more likely to secure funding than those without, making it essential for any organization looking to grow.

What Are the Benefits of Being a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC)?

A Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) is a unique legal structure that allows businesses to prioritize social and environmental goals alongside profitability. This model is ideal for companies that want to maintain their commitment to doing good while still earning profits. PhilanthroBit offers business modeling advisory to help you transition into a PBC by understanding the legal requirements, setting clear impact goals, and attracting socially conscious investors.


One of the major benefits of becoming a PBC is building trust with stakeholders. Studies show that 64% of consumers choose to support businesses that align with their personal values. By becoming a PBC, you not only open up new funding opportunities but also strengthen your brand by committing to transparency and accountability.

How Can Nonprofits Benefit from Starting a (For-Profit) Social Enterprise?

For nonprofits, relying solely on donations and grants can be risky and unsustainable. Starting a social enterprise—a for-profit business that supports your mission—can provide a steady stream of income to fund your programs. PhilanthroBit helps nonprofits create business models for social enterprises, guiding them on how to start a business that aligns with their goals while generating revenue.


Nonprofits that diversify their income streams through social enterprises tend to be more resilient. For instance, a Stanford Social Innovation Review study found that nonprofits with earned income strategies had higher financial stability over time. By building a for-profit social enterprise, your nonprofit can support its mission long-term while reducing dependency on external funding.

What Are Digital Assets, and How Can They Be Used as a Financial Tool?

Digital assets include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and dollar stablecoins (e.g., USDC), which are increasingly being used in transactions and fundraising. For nonprofits, accepting donations in digital assets can open new donor pools and streamline global fundraising efforts. Since cryptocurrencies are borderless, donors from around the world can contribute without worrying about high transfer fees or currency conversion. Nonprofits that adopt digital assets are more likely to attract tech-savvy and younger donors who prefer modern methods of donation.

 

Additionally, some organizations are now using Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset to protect their financial reserves from inflation and economic uncertainty. For example, MicroStrategy, a publicly traded company, has invested over $9.91 billion (as of Sept. 2024) in Bitcoin as part of its corporate treasury. If a nonprofit or business followed suit, they could potentially benefit from the long-term appreciation of Bitcoin while diversifying their financial portfolio. This strategy could provide a hedge against inflation, ensuring the organization's financial stability and growth over time. At PhilanthroBit, we offer digital asset advisory to help organizations evaluate whether this approach aligns with their financial goals.

What Are the Benefits of Using Stablecoins Like USDC for Nonprofits and Businesses?

Stablecoins like USDC are cryptocurrencies pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar, offering the benefits of cryptocurrency without the volatility. For nonprofits, using stablecoins means you can accept donations globally with fast transactions and low fees, without worrying about the fluctuating value that comes with other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

 

At PhilanthroBit, we educate organizations such as 501c3 charities on how to incorporate stablecoins into their fundraising and operational strategies. Stablecoins are particularly useful for organizations that work internationally, as they reduce the need for expensive currency conversions. With stablecoin donations, nonprofits can accept and manage donations efficiently while maintaining value stability, which is critical for long-term financial planning.
