About Our Mission and Cause

Berch Pool will select one charitable organization per year which will be the recipient of a portion of the rewards generated by the stake pool. Berch Pool is committed to making quarterly donations to charities and non-profit organizations. We will use this page to list announcements about donations, transaction details, and future decisions about charitable and/or cause selection.

Berch Pool is happy to announce that we have sent an additional 200 ADA to Ocean Clean Up Project. At the time of writing, this is just about $450. As we continue to build up the pool, we look forward to being able to increase our donations. Our pool is small, but we as operators and our delegates are concerned about the amount of plastic accumulating in the Pacific Ocean. Ocean Clean-UIp project is a non-profit organization dedicated to cleaning up the oceans, lakes, and rivers around the world. If you have family, friends, colleagues who hold ADA coins and who are concerned about the plastic filling up our oceans, please have them consider delegating to

 As Berch Pool is a small, mission-based stake pool, we are committed to sharing the staking rewards we generate with organizations that are cleaning up the oceans, rivers, and waterways around the world. As we mint blocks and earn rewards, we are sharing some of those rewards with companies and individuals doing the work to make a difference. Berch Pool has selected the Ocean Clean-Up Project to be the recipient of our rewards-sharing program. The Ocean Clean-Up Project is one of the largest non-profit organizations with a sole focus on cleaning up oceans and rivers. You can learn more about the Ocean Clean-Up Project here https://theoceancleanup.com/ It’s important to note that Berch Pool is not affiliated or endorsed by Ocean Clean-Up project; but they have given permission for Berch pool to share their efforts in cleaning up waterways and that they are receiving donations from Berch Pool. In keeping with our promise, as Berch Pool minted 2 blocks on the Cardano network in April of 2021, we are pleased to announce that we have sent the Ocean Clean-Up Project our first donation. We have sent the Ocean Clean-Up Project 50 ADA from the rewards generated by Berch Pool for Q1 2021. Water is precious and it needs to be protected. As we mint blocks, we will be sending out donations every quarter. When you delegate your ADA to Berch Pool, you will not only generate rewards for yourself, but you are helping to raise money to clean up the oceans and rivers from litter and plastic. To our delegators, thank you for trusting in Berch Pool. To those considering where to stake your ADA, please know that your stake with us not only promotes the decentralization of Cardano, earns you rewards, but it also is generating much needed help for companies working to make the oceans and the world a better and cleaner place to live.
