"globalislocal asked me to consider two statistics: 4 billion people live on less than $4 a day; and 40% of the world's wealth is held by 1% of the world's population. For me, and for those of us who have more than an extra $4 a day, globalislocal provides us a way to do what we have the ability to do, with the knowledge that our investment creates real and lasting change."

"globalislocal has opened up the world of global philanthropy for me personally. The opportunity to meet leaders of effective organizations and learn about what they are doing is invaluable - truly expanding my understanding of the world! The group of women gathered around the table to review the grant proposals and then the discussion that ensues is always so inspiring. globalislocal is stimulating, energizing and so very rewarding. I am blessed to be part of something as special and unique as globalislocal."
