Start a Program
Together, Let’s Develop Young Philanthropists at Your School or Organization!
We provide the resources, training, and support for a selected teacher, counselor, administrator, staff member, or parent to facilitate a service-learning and philanthropy education program in your classroom, club, or organization. The Magnified Giving process gives you the flexibility to implement the program to best fit your culture.
We believe youth have time, talent, and treasure to support our communities, and our mission is to teach them how! We provide your group of 6th-12th graders with $1,000 to support a local nonprofit, which will inspire and engage youth in the grant-making process.
