Global Giving

Global Giving

We connect people like you with great projects you might not otherwise find.

Much like eBay’s approach to online commerce, GlobalGiving is changing the way people give. We work with a network of well-run organizations and carefully research their projects – gathering detailed information on the project leaders, as well as the projects’ objectives and expected outcomes. Then, we make it simple for you to give to these projects and track the impact of your generosity.

  • Vision
  • Unleash the potential of people around the world to make positive change happen.
    Mission

Build an efficient, open, thriving marketplace that connects people who have community and world-changing ideas with people who can support them.

A quick overview of how GlobalGiving works:

We connect donors to projects via our website, www.globalgiving.com, as well as through custom giving services–helping corporations, foundations, affinity groups, and other institutions with their specific giving needs. All donations are tax-deductible through the GlobalGiving Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 organization. Learn more about how GlobalGiving works.
