Hello Dev community,
I’m sharing an overview of a project called Nourish Link
I am the creator and manager of this project.
What is Nourish Link?
Nourish Link https://nourishlink.org is a mission-driven donation platform currently in development, based in Southern Oregon. Its goal is to make it easier for individuals to support verified food-relief organizations while maintaining a high standard of financial transparency.
Why the project exists
Food insecurity continues to affect millions of people, even in communities with active nonprofit ecosystems. Many donors want to help but are unsure where funds ultimately go or how organizations are selected. Nourish Link was created to address that gap by prioritizing:
Clear explanations of how donations are handled
Direct routing of donations to the selected charity (minus standard payment processing fees)
Publicly stated policies around transparency and independence
How it works (current scope)
Donors select from food-relief organizations listed for informational purposes
Donations are processed securely and directed to the chosen organization
Nourish Link does not claim partnership or endorsement unless explicitly stated
What it is (and is not)
Nourish Link is not yet a nonprofit; it is an independently managed project
It does not take a percentage of donations beyond unavoidable processing fees
It is designed to be non-exclusive and non-competitive with existing charities
Current focus
The platform is in an early phase, starting locally in Southern Oregon, with an emphasis on building responsible systems, public documentation, and trust before any broader expansion.
I’m posting here for transparency and to share the concept with others who care about ethical, accountable charitable giving. Feedback from people experienced in the nonprofit and philanthropy and dev space is welcome.
Thank you for taking the time to read.
