Blessed to Give is a family foundation that began with a desire to respond to the emergency needs of an orphanage we visited in Kenya in 2010.
Mission
Blessed to Give exists to facilitate holistic care for the vulnerable, marginalised, traumatised, and impoverished- especially children.

A community around philanthropy & global issues for under 35s | Sharing inspiring stories of young people using their gifts to bless others & create social change
Our goal is to engage young people in social change by:
1. Celebrating the life-changing contributions of young people in the worlds of philanthropy, international development and social enterprise
2. Together thinking through some of the big challenges that our world faces, particularly those targeted in the Global Goals for Sustainable Development, such as extreme poverty, violent conflict, and gender inequality
3. Together brainstorming ways that we can be part of the solutions to these issues
4. Inspiring young people to share some of their gifts to help resolve issues that they are passionate about
5. Reaching out to under 35s, from students to young professionals and young parents, who are all uniquely gifted to contribute to a better world, whether as volunteers, activists, sponsors, professionals or pro bono consultants
