All Grants Fund

Thank you so much for celebrating our special day with us! We're forgoing a registry, but would like to ask you to direct your consider contributing alongside us to GiveWell , a nonprofit that is dedicated to saving and improving as many lives as they can.  We're forgoing a registry, but would instead like to direct that generosity toward making an impact through charitable contributions. Our charity of choice is GiveWell , a nonprofit that is dedicated to saving and improving as many lives as they can.  Jack first learned about GiveWell a decade ago, and resonated with their academic evidence-backed approach to identifying the most cost-effective giving opportunities: malaria prevention, vitamin A supplementation, tuberculosis management, amongst many others. We have been giving every year since.  You can learn more about GiveWell here: https://www.givewell.org/about And better understand their impact here: https://www.givewell.org/about/impact Of course- there are no expectations from us. Obviously we are all trying to improve the world the best we can; Jack and Kathleen will take no offense should you prefer to direct your charitable efforts elsewhere :)

True Greatness Means Being Generous, Gracious, and Global Recent nationalistic trends and "Make America Great Again" policies have led to significant USAID funding cuts, threatening critical health initiatives in Sub-Saharan Africa. These cuts endanger vulnerable communities and undermine years of progress fighting disease and poverty. Our "Split The G" Challenge takes the "G" in "MAGA" and expands its meaning. Instead of focusing solely on "Greatness" defined by national self-interest, we're splitting this G to represent a more complete vision of what true greatness means. We believe genuine greatness must include being: G enerous with our resources G racious in our approach G lobal in our outlook There's also a second meaning to "Split The G" – it refers to the visual moment when perfectly splitting the G logo in the foam of a freshly poured Guinness. This connection is particularly meaningful because Guinness has a massive presence across Africa, especially in countries like Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya, where it's not just a popular beverage but a cultural institution. These same regions are now facing the harshest impacts of international aid cuts. By participating in this challenge, you're helping bridge the gap created by funding cuts while sending a powerful message: genuine greatness extends beyond borders and embraces our responsibilities to the global community.
