Vision

Everybody wants a better world, don’t they? But who knows how to get one? We think we know, and we’re not talking metaphorically. We’re talking literally. The idea has 3 elements: small donations; collective action; and high impact projects. Those create 3 strands of culture: compassion; collaboration; and competence. Combined, they are what makes the change. We’ve raised money from private foundations that covers all our operating costs so100% of every dollar an individual or group donates goes into their intended project. Small donations mean that everybody can participate. The single biggest change we can make toward a better world is to show millions of people that we’re bigger when we help others. What we’re really working to create, here, is culture of compassion, where it’s OK to help others. We target projects in education because a better educated person remains better educated their entire life. They pass that along to their children, who pass it along to theirs

Goals

1. 1.TGUP’s mission is to improve Education for the world’s children because a better educated person remains better educated for their entire life. And they pass better education on to their children.
2. 2.The Global Uplift Project measures the impact of every project and uses that to carefully evaluate prospective projects to find those with the highest impact.
3. 3.The need is endless in the communities where we work so we would like to expand our projects to help as many people as possible.
