On 20 August 2022, The NGO World celebrated 12 Years’ journey of social good and Making an Impact in our Community.
12 years ago, a group of friends gathered together because they wanted to do something more for the community. Something bigger.
Over the course of the past 12 years, with continued support from our donors, and the dedication of our board members and staff, the beneficiaries list has crossed over a million. The grants we’ve received have touched more lives than our founders could have ever imagined. Looking at the coming years—we are confident the foundation and our partners will continue to impact our community for generations to come.
Millions have been spent on the community in the form of rehabilitation, scholarships, livelihood, capacity building, and most recently, immediate support in response to COVID-19.
But this isn’t about the numbers.
The heart of our 12th-anniversary celebration is our target communities. Each and every one of our supporters serve as an integral building block for all we have done. The impact we’ve made together—and will continue to make for generations to come—is a reflection of the strength of our partnerships and our dedication to making a positive impact on every person who is in need. Our priority areas—networking & capacity building, diversity & inclusion, economic & community betterment, education, environment, and health & human services—stand strong because of you.
The 12th-anniversary celebration is for our community: the people who’ve given their time, talent, and treasure to ensure The NGO World foundation thrived through good times and bad; the people who’ve benefited from the grants that have been awarded to our for-impact partners; and the people whose philanthropic intent have funded our initiatives for more than a decade. Without those individuals, organizations, and corporations, The NGO World Foundation would not have become what it is today. You are all an important part of our history, and we are eager for what comes next.
We’re proud of our history and the partnerships that brought us to this point, and we look forward to honoring that history in the coming years. We have a lot planned for 2025, and it is all focused on the people in need. We are sharing their stories. We will be announcing a variety of events and activities during the coming years, so be sure to stay social and keep in touch to find out more.
Thank you for partnering with us, for supporting us, and for believing in our mission and in our foundation.
Look at what we’ve done. Imagine what we can do, together.
