Have you ever heard of Global Giving? Well, as the NYTimes just reported, Global Giving has gone GREEN!
Global Giving is a website that connects you to “over 450 pre-screened grassroots charity projects around the world. It’s an efficient, transparent way to make an impact with your giving.” Global Giving Green is way to help the fight on poverty while also fighting climate change with the same gift. Many projects in the past that have targeted poverty, have also contributed to climate change.
“GlobalGiving Green is a brand new way for you to help solve that dilemma. Using a unique scientific evaluation system, we’ve carefully pre-screened initiatives that offer win-win solutions — helping people while protecting the planet.”

Thanks, Amy, for the nice shout-out! Would love to hear what you think about GGGreen.
Thanks, Joan! I plan to check it out in more depth and write a follow-up post. What suggestions do you have for guiding people in an exploration/review of GGG? Anything in particular you guys are really excited about?
