Our Story

100% women-operated and owned, we are working tirelessly to build the next best crypto-first giving tool for the budding millennial philanthropist. 

Sacreage was founded in 2021 by Isabel Doonan and Claire Grunewald as a funding platform specifically designed for land conservation and buyback. In building partnerships and prototypes, issues surrounding philanthropic incentive structures, tax benefits, and funding for nonprofits became abundantly clear. We knew we needed to help expand nonprofits’ access to the liquidity and capital across all assets, to ultimately fund land conservation and the environment. 

So, we took a bold and exciting turn to work on unlocking funding and philanthropy in web3. 

 

Sacreage is the second Donor-Advised Fund sponsorship organization to emerge web3. Its goal is to build a seamless giving application that will improve transparency, efficiency, and participation in philanthropic giving, while serving to manage and maximize the wealth that millennials are expected to inherit. Sacreage is working to provide a robust philanthropic offering for retailers and institutions, as we remain dedicated to integrating a carbon negative strategy as an organization.
