Enable Smarter Giving at Scale

We all want to find our guide to good. 

Together, we have the power to accelerate progress.

It takes $1.5 million annually to keep Giving Compass alive and accessible to over 1 million learners around the globe. While grants and key partnerships have been critical, individual donations and unrestricted gifts fuel our growth, scale our impact, and help us support community-led solutions.

If 25% of our users gave $25 in 2025, we could power the platform for the next five years. Just $5 from every user could power Giving Compass for three years.

Give Rise to Giving Compass so we can continue guiding you—and countless others—on this journey of impactful giving.
