Think Global. Act Local.
HERE’S WHY:
Many of the greatest challenges we face as a planet – global poverty, educational inequality, climate change, food insecurity and biodiversity loss – must be solved from the ground up. Without a common global purpose and active stakeholders at the grassroots level, no lasting changes will be able to take root in countries and communities around the world.
The GIVE Foundation envisions a future where local, social entrepreneurs are enacting solutions to poverty reduction, educational equity, women’s empowerment, wildlife conservation, food security and ecosystem restoration across the planet. These local leaders, educators and innovators hold the keys to unlocking the potential of their own communities. It is our mission to unite them around humanity’s shared goals and values: Education, Environment & Entrepreneurship.
Discover how you can help solve our world’s greatest challenges by investing in locally-driven, outcome-oriented and market-based solutions around the globe.
