Our goal is to create a better experience for both donors and the families we serve, ensuring that 100% of donations go directly to building homes.

We decided that 100% of every donation would directly fund medical care, and we would be completely transparent about our financials and operations.

We realized that many nonprofits lack transparency and accountability, leading to skepticism about where donations actually go.

We launched a monthly donation product called the Universal Fund, which has attracted nearly a thousand supporters committed to funding new Watsi patients every month.

As we neared our launch, we officially became a couple and launched our company in 2015, aiming to raise a million dollars through crowdfunding.

My reason for starting Indiegogo was to democratize access to capital, a problem that affected my family and me personally.

Since launching Watsi, over 10,000 donors have funded healthcare for 4,000 patients across 20 countries, raising over $3.5 million, all of which has gone directly to those in need.

Watsi connects donors directly with patients, allowing them to see the impact of their contributions and the real stories behind the people they help, like Getu, who received life-saving surgery funded by 13 donors within 24 hours.

Watsi is the first global crowdfunding platform for healthcare, allowing people to see photos and read stories of patients worldwide who need life-changing healthcare but cannot afford it.
