CHARITY: MISSION

charity: is a non-profit organization that seeks to stimulate greater global awareness about extreme poverty, educate the public and provoke compassionate and intelligent giving.

HOW WE DO IT

EDUCATION & AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS

charity: believes widespread education and awareness are essential for change.

charity: crafts campaigns that present issues like water and sanitation, hunger, AIDS and preventable disease to the public in compelling ways to promote higher understanding.

Through field research and the use of new technology and media, charity: creates innovative multimedia exhibitions, events and grassroots activities. TV's and cinema screens are targeted with Public Service Announcements, a strong web presence and growing community of compassionate concern is fostered, ambassadors are created and empowered.

ENABLING GIVING THROUGH PRODUCTS.

charity: isn't content with education and awareness.

charity: seeks to spark giving, and restore faith in low-level donations. In today's age of billion-dollar philanthropy, many overlook the impact a small donation can have. charity: believes that even small gifts can have great impact when spent wisely in the developing world.

To collect these small donations, charity: develops and sells campaign related products to the public. Unlike other products found in the marketplace, charity: products are unique, as 100 percent of the proceeds fund humanitarian programs in developing nations.

CLOSING THE LOOP. PROVING IT.

charity: believes in the power of showing results.

Technology has made it easier to move images to and from the farthest corners of the earth. Using volunteers, charity: gets cameras into the field to document the work of its humanitarian projects, showing the transformation of lives and communities.

charity: "proves" the work made possible by the proceeds of its products and donations, opening a window to a world where donors can see the difference their gifts have on those in need.
