Offer: Online Marketplace for Giving
by GlobalGiving | November 21, 2007 at 10:45 AM | Funding
gg_stacked_color.jpgGlobalGiving is a marketplace for goodness - where you can browse ways to help others around the world, pick the ones you are most passionate about, and give to the solution.
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.
If you think you have a project that would complement the current GlobalGiving portfolio, contact us at projecthelp@globalgiving.com

Global Giving for the Holidays
2007 has been a year of birthing great things. I am part of the team that created PulseWire AND I am 35 weeks pregnant with my first child - a baby boy! In honor of these beautiful creations, I have chosen three projects aligned with PulseWire's current focus on HIV/AIDS, Human Trafficking, and Water Sustainability to support during the holiday season. I plan on inviting my friends and family to join me in giving the gift that gives. I also invite everyone in the PulseWire community to join me as well or, even better, duplicate my efforts! What could be better than a gift that can change lives?

I will keep this registry open until December 31st and will announce the results soon after.
Happy Holidays!
