The Story About Us

Encast Inspire™ is a new, cloud-based platform revolutionizing crowdfunding and social engagement through a first-of-its-kind portfolio giving approach.

Much like the stock market - where investments in individual stocks and portfolios (401k, Mutual Fund, Index Funds) can be made, Encast Inspire™ allows people to invest in cause portfolios that are curated by entities such as community organizations, businesses, ERGs, athletes, foundations, and celebrities to:

Simplify high impact contributions

Deepen connections between people and influencers

Increase engagemen

The first Encast Inspire™ campaign, Inspire Austin celebrates and elevate beloved Austin causes by inspiring patrons into giving like their favorite socially conscious businesses.

Encast Inspire™ also drives community crowdfunding for Finding Home ATX: Austin’s $515 million initiative to end unsheltered homelessness as part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s House America program. The site allows donors to invest in one or more elements of Austin’s Homelessness OS and provides a template that other House America communities – over seven dozen and counting – could utilize.

Campaigns, like Mark Rober and MrBeast’s $30 million Ocean Cleanup, show how creators can inspire massive social change. Similarly, a 2021 Nielsen report found that Sports Fans are Looking to Sports Leagues and Athletes to Support Social Causes. Encast Inspire™ can power similar campaigns to help influencers quickly and easily deepen fan affinity and elevate social impact.

100% of charitable donations made through Encast™ are tax deductible. With Encast Inspire™ Perks™, portfolios can drive loyalty programs with benefits such as charitable matching, merchandise discounts, VIP experiences, and volunteer opportunities.

There’s an extraordinary array of applications for Encast Inspire™. Contact inspire@encast.gives to accelerate your social impact today!
