Mission & Focus Areas
Mission: GlobalGiving's mission is to transform aid and philanthropy to accelerate community-led change.
Core Philosophy: The organization addresses a fundamental gap in global philanthropy—that the people with the best solutions to the world's biggest problems are often shut out of traditional funding systems. GlobalGiving operates on the principle that local, community-led nonprofits are chronically underfunded, receiving less than 2% of all humanitarian aid. The organization seeks to put communities in the driver's seat of change by providing flexible, no-strings-attached funding.
Program Areas: GlobalGiving has helped raise funds and provided grants for thousands of community-led organizations across more than 175 countries supporting:
- Poverty alleviation
- Health
- Education
- Community development
- Environmental protection
- Disaster recovery
- Child protection
- Climate action
- Food security
Grantmaking
GlobalGiving operates as a donor-advised fund platform, allowing donors to direct the distribution of funds. The organization sources, vets, and monitors nonprofit projects globally.
