Givsum
Advisor | 09/2014 - Current
Founded in 2013, Givsum set out to change the world and inspire others to do the same. By connecting individuals and charities on a single platform, we realized that their collective efforts could be concentrated and social impact multiplied. Givsum allows individuals the ability to conveniently track and promote their philanthropic interests and provides charities with an effective tool to raise awareness and funds.
The world is a big place with some pretty big problems, but when we act together, we can make the world a little smaller and those problems a little more manageable. At Givsum, Inc., we believe that you can decide what kind of impact you want to make on the world around you. Every day, you can decide what kind of person you want to be, because that person can change the world.
