Co-founder @gathr_hq, SWE, Stay jiggy ⚡️... This is not a place for constructive criticism. I’m always right.

Today, we’re live. 🎉
Myself & @oluwalosheyii built Gathr because when life gets difficult, asking for support shouldn’t be.
From personal needs to community projects, Gathr makes it easier to raise the support that matters.
Welcome to Gathr. 💚

So at the right hand side, there’s a yellow box, you just stop there, then passengers dropoff and new ones enter

Anyone who actually see what is going on and not just what is happening, will understand every Nigerian should actually be that worried at this point. It's like we don't get it.

Exciting milestone for us 🚀
We’ve now helped organisers move ₦500,000+ through Gathr to support causes that matter.
Every naira went to someone who needed it. No middlemen, no delays, and that means so much to us.💚

You don’t have a constitution, you have an unpopular president, your Senate is compromised and have refused to do their job and your courts don’t work. I’ve never observed a more broken country

let's goooo 🚀
500K made me stop and reflect for a moment.
When we started building Gathr (@gathr_hq), the focus was simple: create something useful, trustworthy, and strong enough to grow.
But growth changes the questions you ask.
You stop thinking only about whether the product works today, and start thinking about whether the systems behind it can still work when the numbers are 10x, 100x, or 1,000x bigger.
That’s where my head is now.
500K was an important test for us. It gave us confidence in the foundation, but it also showed us where we still need to improve.
As Co-Founder & CTO, I’m spending more time thinking about the rails beneath the product: reliability, scalability, security, and the kind of architecture that can support what we hope #Gathr becomes.
We’re still early, and there’s a lot to build.
But that’s also the exciting part.
500K was the stress test. Looking forward to the next 1M, 100M, and eventually billions.
Onward. 🚀

We're excited to roll out a few features this week that make Gathr more transparent for donors and more rewarding for organisers 🧵
1/ Verified badge: every verified organiser now gets a badge on their campaign page. Donors know who they're giving to before they give a naira

2/ Featured campaigns: campaigns actively shared by their organiser now earn a spot on Explore. Sharing was always the work. Now it earns you reach too. So keep sharing; every share gets you closer to a featured spot and an opportunity to quickly get you to your campaign goal

3/ Campaign views: organisers can now see how many people viewed their campaign, not just who donated. The gap between reach and conversion, in one number.
We've also moved some Infra to Cloudflare for speed and reliability; email reminders shipped. More to come on @gathr_hq 🚀
