Transforming lives one at a time
Funding Impact to empower livelihoods
Our Mission
GIFT ‘s mission is to encourage “lucky” individuals to commit meaningfully to sustainably transform the lives of disadvantaged children and adolescents and empower them to escape their “bad luck” to lead a self-directed existence.
Give it Forward Magic
On the fund raising side
Beyond a monetary contribution, each donor is encouraged to find two or more donors in their network, thus making the Give It Forward magic also work on the fundraising side
Do good, feel good
On the giving side
We encourage the beneficiaries of our donations to, in turn, give forward their good fortune to two or more disadvantage people through money, acts of kindness or simply through caring for others in their community
We Believe in Doing Good Better
We aim at using facts, evidence, and reasoning to do the most good in the world.
We commit to due diligencing associations in a way that ensures our giving has the meaningful impact on lives it intends to have.
We provide multiyear and unrestricted support to the associations in order to drive long-lasting, meaningful and measurable impact.
