Most donation platforms treat giving as a one-off transaction. Bucket treats it like a wallet you refill and direct — so supporters stay connected to projects over time, and projects get a clearer picture of their community of backers.
We're inviting a small group of early testers to try the platform, add funds, explore projects, and tell us what works and what doesn't. Your feedback shapes what Bucket becomes.
Bucket is being built by Neil Cole, Malcolm Rands, Sheridan Jamieson, and Rahul Govindan — four Bucketeers who believe conservation groups deserve better tools and more reliable funding.
Thanks for being here. We're glad you found us.
