A 98.5% Program Expense Ratio. By design.
Traditional cross-border philanthropy loses 5–15% of every dollar to remittance, FX, and intermediary fees. The ZeroHunger DCO settles donations directly on ZeroChain at 0.00001 per transaction, a "Calorie", with cryptographic proof-of-delivery to verified recipients.
Donations flow through the World Food Bank to the United Nations World Food Programme and World Central Kitchen. ZeroHunger Coin holders vote on-chain to admit additional verified charities into the protocol.
The ZeroHunger Foundation is an independent non-profit. ZeroChain provides the transaction infrastructure; the Foundation generates no direct revenue for ZeroChain, its value is operational proof-of-production, ESG credentials, and sovereign relationships across 21 countries.
Switch TV partnership: 8M weekly viewers across Africa.
Through the World Food Bank, ZeroHunger has established a media partnership with Switch TV reaching an estimated 8 million weekly viewers across the African continent. ZeroHunger is introduced not as a financial product marketed to crypto enthusiasts, but as humanitarian technology delivered to the communities most affected by food insecurity.
Governance
The protocol, not a board, decides who receives.
ZHC token holders vote on-chain to admit additional verified charities into the ZeroHunger protocol. Beneficiary expansion is a public governance event, recorded on the same ledger that settles every donation.
