GlobalGiving connects donors with thousands of vetted grassroots charitable projects in nearly every country on earth. Whether you want to support girls’ education in Africa, disaster recovery after an earthquake, clean water, or wildlife protection, you can find a carefully screened local organization doing the work and give to it directly. Every nonprofit on the platform is vetted, and GlobalGiving provides tools, training, and funding to help small community organizations grow stronger, so your gift builds lasting local capacity, not just a one-time fix. Donors receive updates showing the real-world results of their giving. For people who want to think globally but give to the specific, on-the-ground groups that know their communities best, GlobalGiving offers reach, accountability, and trust. It is one of the most respected ways to make an international donation with confidence. Find a project at globalgiving.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.

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!
♥️ Support Chances.org
Since 1999, Chances.org has been dedicated to sharing hope, inspiration, and positive connections. Your gentle support helps keep our interactive tools free and accessible for everyone.
