Welcome to our September Newsletter!

Thank you for being a part of our growing community.

Every month, our community grows and it warms our hearts. Since the 1st of September, we’ve had 186 people take a new pledge with us and over 4000 people make a donation!

When someone takes a pledge with us, they are asked to write down what motivated them to pledge, and we wanted to share a few of our favourites from September:

Knowing that there are thousands of people who are taking lifelong action to help others, especially those they will never meet, is a wonderful thing.
 

Get us to talk at your workplace or community group!

Many people start thinking about how to give back towards the end of the year. If you’d like us to host a talk or workshop at your workplace or with your community group about effective giving over the coming months, please fill in this form! We are excited to share the ideas of effective giving with new people and have found talks and workshops to be impactful.

 

There’s lots of interesting news, content from Giving What We Can and events to attend in the rest of our newsletter down below!

 

Until next time, keep doing good!
