Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Give Betters primary mission is to create recurring giving campaigns for other charitable organizations, particularly those with smaller budgets that make a powerful impact in their local community, but which lack the necessary resources or the experience to raise funds for their activities through widely available social-media-based platforms. Give Betters goal is to localize a national issue, such as food security, a rare childhood disease, or rent assistance, by highlighting a small nonprofit focused on addressing that issue in its community. Give Better accomplishes this by creating individual Impact Projects to raise funds for qualified section 501(c)(3) organizations and then raising awareness about these Impact Projects and the causes they support to provide a national platform for these local nonprofits to connect to new donors who support their mission.
