our model
100% Different
When we first started GO, one of our goals was to renew people's faith in charity by promising full transparency and donating 100% of all personal donations directly to the cause. How do we accomplish this? A group of generous corporate sponsors and foundation grants help pay for the everyday costs of running the organization so that you don't have to. This leaves your money to go where it is needed most - to our grassroots development projects. In fact we're so passionate about our 100% model that we even pay your credit card fees out of our own pockets. It's time to start believing in charity again.
everything helps
$1 Goes a Long Way
For the price of a Starbucks latte per day for a week (about $30) you could provide malaria medication for 400 people at a medical clinic in South Sudan. For the cost of refueling your car (about $50) you could train a farmer in Uganda to sustainably grow food for the rest of their life. Whether your budget is $5 or $5,000, you can make a big difference in the lives of those who have less than us. So go ahead and make a tax-deductible contribution today and start seeing your support at work. We provide detailed impact stories for every project so you always know exactly how your donation helped.
redefine charity
Support Our Operations
our growth plan
2 Million People by 2015
It might seem impossible. When we sketched out the concept for GO at a Berkeley coffee shop in 2008, we thought that impacting 500 people seemed lofty. But after three years of operations, our projects now impact more than 10,000 people every day. Backed with a promise to give 100% to cause, The Power of Their Ideas and Our Support is redefining how people view charity around the world. Fueling this revolution is a group of private donors, foundations and sponsors that cover our fundraising platform and project expenses. These dedicated donors provide our organization the capacity to scale effectively, and make our goal to impact 2 million people seem within reach. Help us GO further.
Double Your Impact
Corporate Gift Matching
Many companies have gift matching programs, through which the charitable contributions made by employees will be matched or even doubled. With minimal effort on your part, you can double the impact of your donation to GO and give twice as much to the projects of your choice. To see if your company has a corporate gift matching program in place, contact your HR manager. GO will take care of all forms and documents required to set up corporate matching at your company, we just ask you to make the initial connection. If your company does not have matching, feel free to email us about setting up a program with you. Take 5 minutes and double your impact.
