A big piece of the inspiration for why I founded Charity Charge came from Muhammad Yunus, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, who founded Grameen Bank and pioneered the concepts of microcredit and microfinance. I knew there were a nearly infinite number of nonprofits in dire need of donations. But how could I individually support them all?
Charity Charge is my way to give back as well as vehicle to make it easy for others who care to do the same. In its simplest form, Charity Charge is a tool that empowers people to generate donations with every purchase. It’s a tool that leverages and grows giving back and doing good.
Along those lines, I’m proud to support Whole Planet Foundation’s 5 Family Fund because it leverages recurring 
monthly donations to help five entrepreneurs annually, who will then be able to help their families and contribute to their local economy. Donations to the 5 Family Fund create an exponential net effect as each entrepreneur gives opportunities to 5 of her family members. I can only imagine how difficult it is for a budding entrepreneur who lives on less than $1 a day, and that’s why it’s important to me to give back to entrepreneurs around the globe who are just waiting for an opportunity. I love the fact that 100% of donations to Whole Planet Foundation go directly to support the entrepreneurs. The Charity Charge team loves the idea of #credit4credit through the work of Whole Planet Foundation.
