Funder Guide

What this helps you do​

This is the core funder path: donate directly to a garden, endow a garden through a vault, or remove your endowment later.

Donate and Endow both support a garden, but they are different:

  • Donate sends direct support through the garden's Cookie Jar for verified work.
  • Endow deposits into a vault designed to preserve your principal while yield supports the garden.
  • Remove an Endowment withdraws principal from an existing vault position.

The public /fund page supports Donate and Endow. To see your active endowment or remove it, sign in to the app and open the garden's Treasury drawer.

Good funding habit​

Before you donate or endow, open the garden and look at its recent approved work. After you endow, check the Treasury drawer so you know where your position and removal controls live.
