From vetting to the first donation

Four steps. The first one, vetting, is what gives companies the confidence to donate regularly.

01

Sign-up and vetting

Your organization is checked against official government registries and the status of its CNPJ. Once approved, it is visible to companies in your region as a verified organization.

  1. 02

    Access to available donations

    You see the surplus on offer by category, quantity and distance, and filter for what your organization actually needs.

  2. 03

    Request and confirmation

    Request the donation in the system. The company confirms and you agree on logistics together. Everything is recorded.

  3. 04

    Automatic receipt and history

    Each delivery produces a digital receipt and joins your history, which makes reporting to funders easier.
