The KindMesh Promise

KindMesh is designed to stay free forever. Optional support helps cover operating costs, and anything above a published reserve can be directed to vetted local charities.

  • Free to search, save, and track volunteer work.
  • Pay-what-you-want support, never a required subscription.
  • Published operating costs, fees, reserve policy, and surplus giving.
  • Local-first charity pool with official links and public receipts where possible.
  • No tax-deductibility claims unless a future nonprofit or fiscal sponsor structure supports them.

Published cost model

  • Hosting and deployments: $20/month
  • Domain, email, and basic tooling: $15/month
  • Research, verification, and moderation reserve: $65/month
  • Payment processing buffer: $10/month

Local charity pool

When KindMesh has the right legal and accounting workflow, surplus support can be directed to vetted local organizations with public records where possible.

Until that setup is documented publicly, support should be treated as optional project support rather than a tax-deductible charitable contribution.
