ACCOUNTABILITY

We really admire the US Better Business Bureau service Give.org which sets awesome standards for charity accountability. We’re newly-formed but starting off right with transparent, standard practices.

 
 

  • Many of our core projects are under development so we’re borrowing from the startup world and staying agile for the next 5 years until we achieve product-market fit and our revenue stabilizes.

    This means we have only 3 directors, 2 uncompensated, and we meet virtually based on revenue (>$50k in donations or annually).

    In the interim we’ve created a board of advisors which we hope will transition smoothly to a DAO-assisted board of directors after 5 years.

  • We use the Entreprenurial Operating System (EOS) from Gino Wickman’s book Traction to measure our effectiveness monthly.

    As we’re founded from the high-tech world and subsidize many technologist apprentices we all operate lean, work agile, and devoutly believe in metrics & KPIs. What works for small startups, also works for small nonprofits!

    We’re creating a public dashboard for each project that we can display to show our effectiveness, when its done you’ll be able to access it here.

  • We track all our financial expenditures with industry-grade software and standard third-party accounting practices.

    All directors have full access to financial software and accounts.

    Given we run many of our projects using blockchain smart contracts our operations are more transparent than usual to audit procedures and many of our finances are available to public audit.

    That said in our first year our budget is experimental at best, stay tuned and we’ll get you a beauteous pie chart here once we know all the details!

  • We’ve just been formed so we don’t have our most recent IRS form 990 available yet. But rest assured that when we do, you will be able to find it here.

  • We’re still refining bylaws, but the classics are in place.

    Empulsive Ink is a DBA of Empulsive, Inc. A registered Arizona nonprofit.

    We’re under US 501(c)3 oversight using form 1023-EZ (for those in the industry-know).

    As a high-tech startup we plan to go through 3 phases, mimicking the growth of startup.

    — Phase 1: Founding (Year 0) will be rapid growth, minimal infrastructure and lean decision-making.

    – Phase 2: Growth (Year 10) will be increasing oversight, transition management, and expansion of What-Works.

    – Phase 3: Stability (Year 15) will be distributed oversight via DAO, public governance, and public trust.
