Accion is a global nonprofit that has spent decades building financial inclusion for people the traditional banking system overlooks. It helps small-business owners and underserved communities access capital, tools, and know-how, from microloans to digital financial services, so entrepreneurs can grow and families can build stability. Accion works both directly and through partners around the world, investing in the institutions and technology that bring responsible finance to millions. For a shop owner who needs a first loan, or a community that lacks basic banking, Accion’s work can be the difference between staying stuck and moving up. Supporters can contribute to that mission and help extend opportunity to people who simply need a fair chance. If you believe access to capital is a form of dignity, Accion has been proving it for generations. Learn more or give at accion.org.
Kindness has a beautiful way of multiplying. Share something thoughtful you recently did for another person, your community, animals, or the planet. Your story does not need to be grand, even the smallest act of kindness may inspire someone else to do good today.

I called an old friend today just to tell her I was thinking about her. We ended up laughing for an hour!A friend

Chances.org has been run by one volunteer, me, since 1999. Here's how you can help keep it going.

Hello, it's me, Amelia Carrie. I have been running and updating Chances.org since 1999, for free. I pay for the software, hosting, maintenance, apps, and more. That's more than 25 years of my life devoted to doing something I love.
However, the fact is that I am a senior now and due to having to compete with AI for computer graphics work, I can no longer afford to run this site on my own. I need your help, not only to keep it online, but to keep it growing. That's why I am updating Chances.org with a Donate button and a Supporters page.
If you can't afford either, you can still help for free by using the sharing buttons below. Thank you!
With gratitude,
Amelia Carrie
For investors and dreamers: If you are an investor with the means to help Chances.org grow as big as Change.org or GoFundMe, please write to me at ChancesCharity@Gmail.com.
And if you have great plans and ambition, I may even let you take this site over, because everybody deserves a chance.
You can't have change without chances!
