Proof Project works with trusted nonprofit organizations. We translate their mission and services into clear, fundable outcomes.
A Proof Point is one unit of impact drawn from a partner’s own work. It carries a price, a delivery, and evidence.
Proof Points give individual donors something specific to fund. Every donor sees the outcome their contribution produced.
Repeat participation builds a broader, steadier pool of funding around each partner. It complements institutional and major-gift capital and builds greater long-term funding stability.
Make every funding decision clearer, more comparable, and more effective.
Proof Project sets shared standards and verifies evidence, so funding connects directly to the outcomes it produces. Foundations, major donors, and individual givers read the same record.
Funders deploy capital with confidence. Nonprofits gain recurring participation they can plan around.
Standardize social good into clear, fundable, and verifiable outcomes.

The partnership launched with a $1,000-per-month implementation grant over twelve months, totaling $12,000 for the first year.
$1,100/mo
By December 2024, donor-driven funding had reached $1,100 in a single month, surpassing the original monthly grant amount for the first time.

By April 2026, monthly donor-driven revenue grew to $1,950, nearly double the original grant.
