Can projects in the virtual world change the real world for the better? If you look at what House of Legend (HOL) has been up to, then the answer appears to be a clear yes. Ever since its launch, the project has been leading the way on how to harness the potential of  NFT, art, and blockchain technology to address pressing humanitarian challenges.

To this end, it has garnered the support of several like-minded organizations that want to give back - including global NGOs as well as major brands in the finance and crypto industries. With a growing list of brands partnering with their social impact initiatives, HOL could well be on its way to creating one of the biggest philanthropic collectives in the NFT space.

And the creative force behind this unique collection is the award-winning, Forbes 30-under-30 digital artist Amit Shimoni, who is HOL’s chief art director.

Unlike other NFT-auctioning platforms, HOL looks to make a real difference in people’s lives with every sale. The project redirects a portion of its  NFT sales proceeds towards building clean water wells for communities in need across Africa and India. This way, it can provide access to clean, safe water for life to hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.
