Blog

Check back here often to find up-to-date information about GIVE, our partners, our work, and most importantly, our progress. We also invite you to post your ideas and suggestions here in the GIVE “blog forum,” where visitors can meet and exchange productive ideas, links, quips, even engage in online discussions.

Think of it as talk-radio for GIVE volunteers, partners and supporters. For we will use our blog forum to help us change the world, one well intended thought, idea or message at a time.

This is our up-to-date diary, which will publish daily musings to our viewers, in an effort to bring about the positive change that is at the root of GIVE.  You need not be a seasoned journalist. Instead, all you need is a good thought, a good idea, or perhaps just a means to stay connected to others who are volunteering and donating through the growing GIVE network.

Join us today as we build a strong online presence for GIVE - for our work, our economic development and relief efforts, and our global assistance, all of which is already reaching millions of individuals and businesses worldwide.

Partners and Supporters

GIVE has very specific purposes, which include sparking economic development, advancing entrepreneurship, develop and market small businesses and provide relief efforts to areas of our world that are currently in desperate need. To accomplish all we have set out to do, we need your help.

GIVE calls on businesses of every size and nature to take part in what is sure to be one of the most rewarding projects of our time. Lend your knowledge to distant communities, small businesses or non-profits in need. Or, if you or your business would rather make a monetary donation, rest assured that we will use these funds to advance our projects, which now crosses countless borders worldwide.

No contribution is too small. No effort not enough. GIVE needs you.

 GIVE has very specific purposes, which include sparking economic development, advancing entrepreneurship, developing and marketing small businesses and providing relief efforts to areas of our world that are currently in desperate need. To accomplish all we have set out to do, we need a strong team of partners and supporters worldwide.

We rely heavily on our partner relationships in the areas we serve to enable us to provide our services in the most efficient ways possible. Without these partners and supporters, GIVE would not be possible, which means all the good we do would not reach the people and businesses most in need.

We partner with (Endless Sea, Making Cents, NGOs, Indonesian program partners…to …SVY: If you take the page this direction, all I need are agency/business names and I can tie these in to the services you provide through GIVE.
