Most of us want to do good. We want to help others and give back.
Our movement offers an amazing opportunity for members to effectively do good over the course of their lives and leave behind a legacy that benefits the world.
Fortunately, most of us are in a situation where we can do a huge amount of good at little cost to ourselves. Sometimes we forget this, especially when we are preoccupied and get caught up in our busy lives.
The Five Percent Foundation offers members an easy, innovative way to give which has a bigger impact over time than donating directly to charities. By joining our movement, our members feel encouraged knowing that their donations will continue to have an impact for decades to come.
Doing good offers many rewards to both the world and our members individually.
Giving to effective charities can have an exceptional impact on the world. Did you know that you can actually save lives by giving to the world’s most effective charities?
At the Five Percent Foundation, we select effective charities that have proven impact and published evaluations of their opportunities and impact. The proceeds from our members’ donations are put to work by these charities, who do work on the ground to address pressing global challenges: saving lives, preventing disease, providing access to education and tackling climate change.
Also, by making the 5% pledge, you are likely to inspire others to join the movement towards effective and sustainable giving, and foster a culture of doing good in the community.
Psychological research suggests that doing good makes people feel good by producing a powerful sense of well-being and purpose. Our members report feeling proud and fulfilled knowing that they are making a difference.
Members of the Five Percent Foundation are part of a community of individuals with the same aspirations: to have a positive impact on the world in the most convenient and effective way possible.
There are also tax benefits - all donations (above $2) to the Five Percent Foundation are tax-deductible in the year you donate.
Our members are surprised to find that they don’t even miss the 5%.
