The question before giving
When you give, you want to know that what is described is true on the ground too. A screen cannot always tell you that. The reference system answers it from the field.
A reference person of ours who knows the campaign owner or their surroundings closely reviews the campaign on site and writes their view. You can give with peace of mind.
How verification goes
Request
The campaign owner or our team asks for a reference for the campaign.
Getting to know you
Our reference team gets in touch and listens to the campaign in detail.
On-site review
Our reference person sees the campaign in person and writes their view.
Badge
The approved campaign shows the "Referenced" badge on its page.
What the badge says
When you tap the badge you see when and where the campaign was verified and by which field team. Our reference people's identities stay safe with us.
The badge below is an example; tap it to open the record.
For campaign owners
When you ask for a reference, our reference team gets in touch, learns your campaign in detail and runs the process with you from start to finish. As our reference network grows, verification reaches new regions.
Becoming a reference person
As one of the people our team knows closely and trusts, you can review campaigns on site and write your view.
Our network grows by invitation. You apply with the invite code of a reference person who knows you; they confirm they know you, then our team looks at your application. You can apply without a code too; our team will get in touch.
For every campaign you review, you earn 
Donate Token as our thanks.
