Executive Abstract

SHELTR represents a paradigm shift in addressing homelessness through technology-driven charitable giving and dual-token economics. By seamlessly integrating blockchain transparency, AI-powered financial guidance, and location-based services, SHELTR creates a direct bridge between donors and individuals experiencing homelessness while building sustainable long-term solutions.

Our revolutionary dual-token architecture combines SHELTR-S (stable utility token) for participant protection with SHELTR (community governance token) for ecosystem growth. This innovative approach ensures that 80% of donations reach participants as stable value, 15% funds housing solutions, and 5% supports operations—all verified on-chain for complete transparency.

Our platform launches with 100 SHELTR-S tokens ($100 value) gifted to every new participant, creating immediate engagement and platform adoption through direct empowerment.
