From the publisher

The Double Impact Project seeks to transform political donations into charitable impact.Instead of traditional campaign contributions, donors can pledge money to their preferred political party, and if an equal amount is pledged to the opposing party, those funds are "cancelled out" and donated to charities supported by both parties. This "win-win" approach redirects political rivalry into a positive sum game where both political engagement and charitable giving are simultaneously achieved. The project aims to create a more impactful and efficient use of political campaign funds by channeling them to address pressing societal needs while allowing donors to express their political views.Find out more: https://doubleimpact.charity/
