Difference you will make
Givto is unique.
It’s a bit like a digital version of the supermarket charity token schemes.
The charities who have worked with us have told us Givto is not only helping with funding ,but it also enables them to reach people who would never have heard of them otherwise. That’s because no matter how big or small a charity is, or what cause they support, they all get a platform with Givto.
