We help thousands of cats across the UK each year thanks to our network of dedicated volunteers, staff and supporters.

A bit about this role

Our fundraising events organisers have the exciting and varied role of helping plan and deliver local fundraising events to raise the vital funds needed to help our feline friends.

Support, guidance and keeping you safe

Green Standard

The Green Standard is a new system that restores our natural world for future generations. Introducing the Green Standard Token, which is Earth’s first currency backed by protected land. That land is held in a nonprofit and owned by nature, meaning everything we do and how that land is used must serve nature. Our vision is for nature to be the world's largest landowner.

Our systems are not fit for purpose.

• Government: Short-term thinking neglects long-term challenges
• Business: Maximising ROI decimates nature
• Philanthropy: Reliant on free money and isn't scalable

But they're not going anywhere.

Answer: we must build alternative complimentary systems, like the Green Standard.

We are a community governed system based on ownership economic principles that adheres to circular economy requirements.

The Green Standard monetary system is similar to the Gold Standard where money was backed by gold. NOW money is backed by land, which must be used to serve nature.

Our company GST DAO Ltd is the sole service provider to our land trust and monetises the restoration and protection of nature. We plan to have a network of land stewards in place to operate on the land and share profit between the land stewards themselves, us and local communities.

What would Earth do?

If Earth could create new systems for humans to implement, in order to protect itself, what would it ask us to do?

Those systems would have to protect nature, sequester CO2 and be human-proof, so we don't destroy them.

Well, humans DO NOT destroy money.

So let's align the creation of money with the creation of nature.
