Since 2004, we have been dedicated to building mutually beneficial & educational relationships between grassroots social impact organizations —a.k.a. our Partners— and volunteers, donors & classrooms around the world who can learn from & support their work. Through our EdGE program, we help universities, schools, and nonprofits reimagine and reinvent their global social impact efforts in ways that disrupt paternalism and inequality, and strive for more radical learning and social change. Our Partner organizations use our platform to recruit volunteers and interns, raise funds, and connect with each other, while individuals use the platform to find international volunteer and internship opportunities, raise funds, and receive accredited online training and mentorship. Our bold vision is to reinvent 'global learning' to make it more affordable, more ethical, and more impactful.
