October 24 - A Million Little Earth Changing Ideas!


GlobalGiving connects you to over 1,000 pre-screened grassroots charity projects around the world. It's an efficient, transparent way to make an impact with your giving.



Connecting Donors to Doers - GlobalGiving begins with the dedicated, tenacious individuals who are driving change in their communities. From running orphanages and schools, to helping survivors of natural disasters, these people are do-gooders to the core. We connect these "good idea people" with the "generous giver people" and help projects of all sizes receive donations of all sizes.



GlobalGiving connects donors directly at the project level, in contrast to organizations that run projects but maintain control over how contributions are allocated or spent.  Enabling donors to give directly to projects offers them more choice -- donors can browse through a broad range of geographies and themes such as health, education, environment, among others -- and they know exactly how their money will be used. In addition, our highly-efficient online giving platform allows donors to connect and communicate directly with project leaders.





By working through trusted partners, we are able to identify, vet, and promote projects that might not otherwise receive support because of distance, technological difficulties, or language barriers.


GlobalGiving Guaranteed promises donors complete satisfaction with their giving experience, or their money back in the form of a voucher for the original donation amount that can be used to support another project on GlobalGiving.org.   Since 2002, 121,059 donors like you have given $32,533,768 to 3,165 projects. Wonderful!
