Participants can select which projects they want to contribute to, and their computing power is used to perform tasks for those projects. The system is set up to have minimal impact on users' computers, so they can continue using their devices as usual without interruption.

In return for their contributions, users can earn points that can be used to enter prize draws for a chance to win prizes such as gaming consoles or even a year's worth of free electricity.

The platform is open to anyone around the world who wants to contribute to a good cause while also potentially earning rewards. By pooling the unused computing power of thousands of users around the world, Charity Engine is able to contribute significantly to scientific research and charitable organizations.
