Give once.  Empower forever.

The world's most systemic problems, from environmental degradation to violent extremism, will not be sufficiently challenged until we stand up for, and EMPOWER the poorest among us.

c2 => Compassion 2 EMPOWER.  Your gift to C2 goes directly to providing capital and technology to microfinance institutions.  It will be a gift that invests in communities - communities that will reinvest and multiply what they have received - creating a compounding cycle of opportunity,  

Give once.  Empower Forever. 

UPDATE:  1 Goal met, 1 to go!!!  We officially have all inhabited continents represented, thanks to my friend Alessandra from Lima, Peru and James from Capetown, South Africa!  There is still time to donate.  Just $1,000 more to get to C2's final goal.  Thank you so much everyone!

  1. Learn about microfinance
  2. Give now to C2! Donations are 100% tax deductable and go directly to Grameen Foundation (2006 Nobel Peace Prize Winner), providing much needed capital, technology and management services to microfinance institutions in order to improve the lives and livelihoods of the world's poorest. 
  3. URGENT!  Compassion 2 Rebuild Haiti - Deadline is March 31

    Grameen Foundation, the organization that receives 100% of your gift, is actively working to coordinate rebuilding efforts in Haiti.  Support the thousands of poor families devastated by the recent earthquake. Your gift will help a quake survivor become a borrower with the means to rebuild her business and her life. Grameen have agreed to direct ALL funds received from C2 to their efforts in Haiti. Grameen Foundation and their local partner Fonkoze successfully helped families recover in the wake of hurricanes Gustav, Hanna, and Ike that struck Haiti in 2008.
