The worlds of happiness and technology have collided — NFTs from Give Basic Needs!

Our pricing model is designed to create a profound impact. When an entire set of Give Basic Needs NFTs has been sold, we’ll have accumulated the funds to not only restore your NFT project cost but also fund three completely new projects with new matching NFTs!

When you make a donation, you’re harnessing the power of the “Theory of 3” – you become part of a group of donors who inspire the creation of three other projects, and those three projects will create three more. This chain of giving ensures that your initial donation sets off a series of generous acts.

Each donation, no matter how big or small, triggers a cascade of kindness, allowing us to continue our mission and make the world a happier place for all.

Give Basic Needs is an IRS 501c3 non-profit, so we’ll even provide access to a donor acknowledgment letter for tax purposes when you buy a previously unsold NFT! Sorry, traded or resold NFTs will not have the right to use the donor acknowledgment letter. So be first, collect them all, and spread the word!

Why NFTs from Give Basic Needs?

Celebrate Your One with Humanity

This on-chain Ethereum asset collection (ERC 1155) contains unique works of art that will look great in your collection whether you’re a veteran collector or a first-timer. It will make you a member of a special club that you can be proud of, a club that says, “We are more important than me.” We are kick-starting digital blockchain philanthropy, and it’s going to put a smile on your face when you look in your wallet and see these bright, shiny NFTs. You’ll also have access to a protected Discord channel where you can see the latest mints first, talk with like-minded people, and have direct access to those working on the ground and management at Give Basic Needs. Finally, when you buy an NFT from Give Basic Needs, you will be able to see a unique, specially chosen photo of the specific event you helped make happen as our Thank You for your support!

Transparency and Trust

Transactions on the blockchain cannot be altered once they are recorded. This ensures that every NFT purchase and the allocation of funds to Give Basic Needs projects are verifiable and tamper-proof. Thank you, Ethereum!

The blockchain ledger is public and accessible to anyone. Anyone can review Give Basic Needs’ financial wallet transactions, providing unprecedented openness and trust. You can independently track your contributions’ impact and see precisely where your funds are going and how much happy they’re creating!

Global Reach

NFTs are entirely digital assets, meaning they can be bought, sold, traded, and stored. This accessibility ensures that anyone with an internet connection and a digital wallet can participate in supporting Give Basic Needs, regardless of their location.

Blockchain transactions are often faster and more efficient than traditional financial systems, making them convenient for a global audience.

How is your donation used?

We try to match your funds with future Giving Events of the same type. For example, if you buy a “Medical” “Clinic” in “Ghana” NFT, we will try to put your funds specifically into a future “Medical”, “Clinic”, “Ghana” event.

Although we will do our best, we can’t always guarantee an exact match because there are so many variables involved in executing a high-quality Giving Event.

For example, the availability of medical professional staffing in the region. Our contacts on the ground might lose access to Medical Professional staffing for unforeseen reasons. In this case, we would move “up the ladder,” as we say, by looking for “Medical” Giving Event opportunities in “Ghana,” and if that’s not possible, we would just look for events in “Ghana.” Finally, if not “Ghana,” then globally.

While it’s not an exact match, you can know your funds are used to reduce suffering and make the world a happier place, regardless!

What else comes with my donation?

As a supporting member of the organization, you will have access to the following:

• The satisfaction and transparency of knowing your donation will reduce suffering in the world and make it just a little happier.
• A specially selected image from the Giving Event for your eyes only.
• First purchasers can use the NFT’s Travel Point value with Happy Travel to see the impact of your donation. (Learn more about Happy Travel here.)
• Track your funds on the highly secure Ethereum blockchain to our program assistant on the ground, who is paying it forward.
• The ability to connect with the Give Basic Needs team anytime in a private Discord channel for NFT owners only.
• You may get early access to new Give Basic Needs physical or digital products or services.
• You could get access to exclusive travel experiences through Happy Travel.
• Watch the video of the Giving Event (where available) as if you were there on that day donating.
• Easily accessible documents, including the Give Basic Needs Donor Acknowledgement Letter that can be turned over to a professional IRS tax preparer.
• The ability to prove their ownership cryptographically to the organization both online and in person that they have possession of the NFT Token in their digital wallet. This could be used in future community events, gaming, or partnership discounts.

How does Give Basic Needs determine pricing?

This formula ensures that our NFTs are priced as close as possible in ETH to our calculated value in USD. We use the 144 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) price for ETH when pricing our NFTs. This is because the 144 EMA smooths out the bumps in the market and gives us a more accurate picture of the long-term value of ETH. We will be repricing our unsold NFTs annually around April 15 to accommodate a changing 144 EMA Daily ETH price to comply with Internal Revenue Service requirements**.

For Example: Pricing [#4 Uncommon Borehole (G24)]

• Target Token Sale Price = 29 USD
• Apr-15-2023 ETH Price = 1,627.50 USD / ETH
• Token Sale Price = (29 / 1627.50) = 0.0178 ETH
• The ETH Token List Price of 0.0178 ETH will be used on NFT marketplaces as the sale price.

Note: Only initial owners of the NFT should attempt to take an IRS tax donation as Give Basic Needs is a 501c3 Non-Profit (EIN – 87-1287029). The “Donor Acknowledgement Letter” for tax purposes can be found in the tokens “Dynamic Metadata” link and used in
conjunction with blockchain-specific transaction data when working with a tax professional during filing.

** Per the IRS instructions: Valuation date: An asset required to be valued annually may be valued as of any day in the private foundation’s tax year, provided the foundation values the asset as of that date in all tax years. Give Basic Needs uses Apr-15 to value ETH in USD based on 144-Day EMA on the Daily Chart.
