Glo Dollar is a fiat-backed stablecoin that funds public goods.

With Glo Dollar, you can help fund public goods and charitable causes just by holding a stablecoin. It's a new, donationless form of philanthropy.

Glo Dollar allows you, the holder, to choose which causes to support. That includes poverty alleviation, decarbonization programs, and Web3 open source initiatives. At zero cost to you. We’ll refer to this as AutoPGF (Automatic Public Goods Funding).

‍That's right—you're funding public goods without having to give away money.

1. You buy Glo Dollar (USDGLO)

See How to buy Glo Dollar.

2. The fiat backing Glo Dollar will be invested and earn revenue

For each Glo Dollar in circulation, there's at least $1 of cash and/or US Treasuries.

The US Treasuries earn interest, which becomes revenue. This is how most stablecoin companies make money.

3. We use our portion of the revenue to fund public goods

The revenue is split between us (the Glo Foundation) and our issuance partner.

The Glo Foundation will donate every dollar to charities selected by Glo Dollar holders.

The more money we earn → the more we donate → the more charitable causes will be helped.

4. You’re funding public goods without donating a penny

This is the magic of Glo Dollar. Simply by holding a stablecoin, you’ll set us up to help fund public goods and charitable causes.

In this program, GiveDirectly identifies impoverished African villages to give their citizens $30 per month, transferred via mobile money technology, for 3-5 years. For people living on less than $2/day this is a transformational amount.
Glo's economic model is to invest its reserve in short-term Treasury bills and give the proceeds away entirely to GiveDirectly.
