Perhaps you want to start a small monthly donation of what you can afford? Or just want to transfer a one-off gift to help social entrepreneurs lift millions of people out of poverty. Do it today! The form is right here.

The Social Business Revolution: Why is Venture Philanthropy the Most Effective Form of Giving?
How should we give? Along with the issue of how much, questioning the model into which we donate our money is becoming more and more pertinent in the modern age. As we seek to optimise the way we spend and invest our money, it’s not surprising that we are also looking to optimise the way we give. There is a scarcity in the philanthropic capital available - so it’s important that it is spent well.
