How
“While vigorously looking for meaning, I decided to create my own”
was created
Hayk Ayrapetyan
Founder & CEO of IMAST
Social entrepreneur, co-founder of the online education platform “GeekBrains”
By creating IMAST (Armenian for "meaning"), I aim to unite all Armenians, give them tools to help, create a large community of donors, and shift paradigms.
After exiting my 10-year-old startup, I began searching for meaning in my life. This coincided with the 44-day war in Armenia, and I felt a strong urge to help my homeland, but I didn't know how. Soon I realized that there were many others who also wanted to help, but had limited tools to do so. I knew that I could come up with a solution that would systematically solve this problem, and I was determined to make a difference.

IMAST is the 1st charity app in Armenia. The name stands for “meaning” in Armenian. It’s a user-friendly and transparent tool for vetted Armenian non-profit organizations to launch fundraisers and reach new donors worldwide.
Yes, IMAST is a non-profit organization. We stand behind our mission and operate without generating income from app activities. Your donations go directly to the causes you care about.
IMAST was created to become a unifying trustworthy platform for all impactful projects in Armenia and enable easy support in just 3 clicks. Our goal is to have 100,000 monthly donors to provide systemic help to Armenia. That is why it’s important to become a recurring donor at any amount.
We aim to unite Armenians globally around meaningful causes. Imagine a community where micro-donations become a standard, fueling countless positive projects together.
IMAST has no boundaries. Everyone can access the app from anywhere.
The collected funds are sent to the officially registered bank accounts of the partner non-profit organization. To ensure transparency, each project includes financial documents detailing project costs, Stripe payment system fees, and a marketing budget to promote the project.
As a non-profit organization, we do not charge partner non-profit organizations for any operations and we do not make money from your donations. You can leave voluntary tips and help us cover the operation fees, including the development of the mobile application.

Contribution and Transparency
Here are several ways to help: download the app and become a monthly donor, or donate to the project of your heart. Also, IMAST offers a wide range of sponsorship packages. Become an IMAST friend, partner, or ambassador to support us build our global community and contribute to developing the giving culture.
Non-profit organizations undergo rigorous legal and financial screening by an independent third party. After this review, each organization receives a risk rating: safe, low-risk, moderate-risk, or high-risk. IMAST uses these ratings to determine whether or not to collaborate with an organization. Organizations that do not meet IMAST's screening criteria receive detailed feedback and can reapply once they have addressed the concerns. You can learn more here.
After each fundraising campaign, participating organizations are obligated to submit impact reports. These reports, available on the app, detail the campaign's achievements through both news stories and financial documents. Each donor is notified about these updates through emails and notifications.
