In episode 76 we’re excited to welcome Dave Grannan, Founder of DVL.DGS, an NFT project using the power of web3 to support veterans and service members in the areas of suicide prevention, access to quality healthcare, sexual violence prevention, homelessness, and education and financial literacy, with 100% of proceeds from sales supporting these causes. Dave is a Serial Entrepreneur, veteran, and web3 evangelist, combining his experience in tech and passion for supporting service members into DVL.DGS.

In this episode we discuss how they are using NFTs to support veterans causes and build a community of support for service members, how crypto and NFTs will positively disrupt charitable giving, DAOs and community governance, and much more!

Three Key Takeaways

The support services for veterans and service members in the US are broken. Veterans and service members suffer disproportionate rates of homelessness, suicide, and mental illness, and creative approaches to addressing these issues are needed.
Crypto and NFTs should be embraced by the charitable sector as they allow for a greater degree to transparency and trust by allowing for an open and trustless system of giving.
NFTs allow individuals to support causes they care about while being able to receive something tangible in return, an NFT, to commemorate their donation.
