AB Charity Foundation, a newly launched international nonprofit based in Ireland, has officially announced the start of its global operations and unveiled its upgraded website at www.ab.org. Positioned at the intersection of public trust, governance, and advanced technology, the Foundation aims to redefine global philanthropy through institutional leadership and blockchain transparency.
The Foundation is governed by a high-profile board of directors, including former European heads of state. Chaired by Bertie Ahern, former three-term Prime Minister of Ireland and co-architect of the Good Friday Agreement, the board also includes former leaders from Malta, Hungary, Slovenia, and Bulgaria.
What sets AB Charity Foundation apart is its integration of blockchain infrastructure—provided by AB DAO—which ensures that 15% to 30% of all gas fees from AB chain transactions are automatically directed into a verifiable charity pool. Additionally, returns from the AB Ecosystem Fund also contribute to the Foundation’s mission, creating a self-sustaining model for funding global initiatives in education, healthcare, environmental protection, and humanitarian aid.
In an era of growing skepticism around nonprofit accountability, the Foundation presents a bold new model where every donation is traceable, every distribution is verifiable, and every action is driven by a shared vision of global cooperation.
AB Blockchain is a modular, scalable network designed to support real-world applications across finance, gaming, IoT, and charitable giving. With 1-second block times, low fees, and cross-chain interoperability with major networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum, it enables fast, transparent, and efficient on-chain interactions.
Thanks to this infrastructure, the AB Charity Foundation can transparently manage donations and automate fund distribution via smart contracts—building a verifiable and trustworthy model for blockchain-based philanthropy.
