About Us: Our Mission
GO Campaign is dedicated to empowering orphans and vulnerable children throughout the world to secure a better future. We are a youth-driven nonprofit that cuts out the red tape and provides a direct connection to deserving grass-roots organizations serving children in need.
GO Campaign raises awareness and funds for those programs that would otherwise fall through the cracks, those programs which provide basic human needs to children such as shelter, food, clean water, education, medical care, vocational training, and income-generating activities. GO Campaign believes that our children are our future, and GO is dedicated to inspiring the next generation of social thinkers by providing today’s youth with a forum for connecting and the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of their counterparts across the globe.
Powered by Youth:
GO Campaign and our youth-driven leadership opportunities offer a safe and effective platform for youth to connect with others around the world by providing the tools to start action-oriented projects. Together, the GO Community will:
- Bridge the cultural and economic divide between children by providing them with pathways to flourish as international ambassadors
- Inspire dialogue and action about global concerns affecting children
- Encourage youth to be agents of change, philanthropists and to actively shape the world in which they live
Long-lasting International Development:
We primarily partner with small grassroots organizations in the developing world that are typically too small or otherwise overlooked by larger non-profit grantmaking organizations. We support programs run by local community leaders that have the proven ability to improve the lives of orphans and vulnerable children by providing critical services and resources. We aim to build strong and long lasting relationships with our beneficiary organizations and the children they serve to ensure that the donations and goodwill of our supporters are honored most effectively. 100% of all donations to GO Campaign are dedicated to our programs on the ground.
Grantmaking Philosophy and Guidelines:
GO Campaign designates resources to communities where private funding - your contributions – can make a significant difference in the lives of orphans and vulnerable children. The projects we support currently receive inadequate funding to address critical needs. Through GO Campaign’s assistance, these areas are better positioned for positive change and lasting results.
We take monitoring and evaluating our partnerships seriously, we comply with industry standards and we foster respectful and transparent partnerships. Our experienced grantmaking staff selects programs and organizations after thorough review, and requires appropriate project specific reporting schedules.
