Summon Platform Collaborates with GOAT Tribe and Switzerland for UNHCR to Bolster Humanitarian Efforts with Web3 Tech

Summon Association, the Zug, Switzerland-based guardians of the Summon Platform ecosystem, have announced their participation in the innovative Kind Hoofs initiative, a pioneering collaboration with UNHCR's National Partner, Switzerland for UNHCR, and GOAT Tribe, an iconic Web3 brand committed to community development and social responsibility.

The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) works to save lives and protect the rights of millions of forcibly displaced people around the world through partner organizations like Switzerland for UNHCR. The Kind Hoofs initiative will raise funds for this cause through solicited donations and sales of GOAT Tribe digital collectibles featuring the Switzerland for UNHCR logo and uniforms on characters from GOAT Tribe’s prominent NFT collection.

As the guardians of the Summon Platform ecosystem, Summon Association will facilitate an intuitive interface for the highly secure Multi-Signature Wallet technology which will be used to secure and disburse the cryptocurrency funds raised. The Summon Platform, which has emerged as one of the hottest projects in Web3, provides the most advanced Multi-Signature Wallet for the Cardano blockchain with multi-chain features currently undergoing research development. 

"Summon is honored to support UNHCR's National Partner, Switzerland for UNHCR, and GOAT Tribe in this transformative Web3 initiative," said Dr. Adam Rusch, President of the Summon Association. "Through the Kind Hoofs initiative, Summon aims to make a measurably positive impact for forcefully displaced populations of refugees around the world by leveraging the power of our best-in-class decentralized governance, treasury, and digital asset management technologies."

Utilizing Summon’s Multi-Signature Wallet for the initiative ensures that no single individual can execute a spend transaction from the Kind Hoofs treasury unless it is approved by cryptographic signatures from a sufficient number of trusted individuals. This system allows for communities and organizations, such as Switzerland for UNHCR, to exercise greater control over their assets and establish a high degree of wallet security, while still ensuring ease of access and flexibility. Based on Cardano native scripts, Summon believes its flagship Multi-Signature wallet is among the most secure blockchain wallets on the market today due to its reduced attack vector in comparison to its smart contract-based competitors.  

"We are proud to have Summon as a collaborator in this critical humanitarian initiative, which leverages the strengths of our respective brands, platforms, and Web3 technologies to support the important mission of UNHCR's National Partner Switzerland for UNHCR," said John Rivera, Chief Marketing Officer for GOAT Tribe. "We believe in the power of emerging Web3 technologies to enable accessible and inclusive solutions for the empowerment of the millions of forcibly displaced refugees worldwide."

Through the Kind Hoofs initiative, GOAT Tribe will introduce a series of limited edition digital collectibles with characters depicting various roles within UNHCR's fight against forced displacement. The digital collectables showcasing UNHCR's National Partner, Switzerland for UNHCR's logos and uniforms will be made available for sale to the public.

Proceeds generated from the sale of the collectables will be held in a Summon Platform Multi-Signature Wallet under the control of designated personnel of Switzerland for UNHCR’s Innovation Unit, until it is disbursed to provide funding to refugee programs. In addition to raising funds, the Kind Hoofs Initiative also seeks to raise awareness of the plight of the millions of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution, while recognizing their immense strength and courage.
