SHELTR is a revolutionary charitable giving platform that bridges the gap between donors and those experiencing homelessness through cutting-edge technology. By leveraging QR-code enabled direct donations, blockchain verification, and AI-driven insights, SHELTR creates a transparent, efficient, and impactful giving ecosystem.
SHELTR will enable immediate assistance while building sustainable support systems through a unique SmartFund™️ distribution model: 80% to direct support, 15% to a sustainable housing fund, and 5% to operational costs.
Our mission is to "hack homelessness" by combining technological innovation with compassionate action, creating measurable impact through verifiable transactions, and fostering a community of engaged donors and supported individuals.
Following successful implementation of Shelter Admin dashboard with enhanced UI components and map functionality, development focus has shifted to:
- Analytics integration
- Mobile responsiveness optimization
- Map feature enhancements
- Dark theme optimization
- Location-based services
- Real-time monitoring
