At Chix Creative, we believe that as we continue to grow our business, the more we will give back. Throughout the year we donated to causes that are meaningful to us. Normally, we would promote those causes and raise awareness, but we thought that this year we would recognize the company that helps us to contribute. That company is GlobalGiving.
Since 2002, this DC-based non-profit has provided online tools for social entrepreneurs and other non-profits looking to raise the money they need to improve their communities. So far, they have raised over $55 million from over 250,000 donors, supporting at least 5,000 projects. By embracing social media tools such as Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter, they offer various ways to donate. Once GlobalGiving receives your donation, you will receive project updates letting you know how your contribution is being put to use. They also have charity days where they will match donated funds by 30%.
We appreciate how quickly they respond to bring relief during natural disasters. Their incredible efforts to bring otherwise unknown non-profits attention and awareness makes them a vital part of our philanthropic goals.
We encourage you to learn more on Global Giving’s website, and you can also follow them on twitter (@globalgiving) for up-to-the-minute news on their activities.
