ELEYTRA COMMUNITY TOKENS

Turn Volunteer Hours Into Fundraising

Elytra Community Tokens (ECTs) turn volunteer activity into funding. When your volunteers log hours or recruit new members, your organisation earns tokens that you can redeem for resources and fundraising.

These tokens are earned through:

  • Every volunteer hour logged

  • Helping with network growth milestones

  • Improving volunteer engagement

Grow. Fundraise. Succeed.
