25.01.2022 True words from Herman Melville, which feel especially relevant right now. Our actions and choices have results well never see. What choices are you making today?

25.01.2022 Heart and maths are secret soulmates. Sometimes, thinking about people in terms of dollars and numbers can seem a bit...distant. But Derek Thompson reminds us that running the numbers on effective ways to donate and create change is an act of real love.

24.01.2022 Thanks so much ABC Brisbane for having us on the show this morning! Want to catch our chat with Rebecca Levingston? Have a listen from 02:11:00 https://www.abc.net.au//programs/mornings/mornings/12004910

24.01.2022 Weve been making new little friends during a fun #tinyhouse fitout were working on at gorgeous Lacys Creek. Keep an eye out soon for photos of the finished house!

24.01.2022 We're very excited to announce that we are joining the Giving What We Can community as a founding member of their new Company Pledge. Alongside Waking Up, Studio-1x, and Isolabs, we are now part of a global community of businesses publicly committed to giving at least 10% of profits to effective charities. Giving What We Can is a community of over 5000 individuals pledged giving back and helping others, by donating a significant portion of their income to highly effective charities. We’re excited to be part of this next chapter for Giving What We Can , and can’t wait to see other businesses join us in taking the pledge.

23.01.2022 Take time and notice the good stuff. Our co-founder Calvin took a detour to the beach last week after quoting some work on beautiful Bribie Island. How do you take time to slow down and notice in a busy schedule?

22.01.2022 Some #mondaymotivation from philosopher Peter Singer #flourish

22.01.2022 68! We recieved an email this week from The Against Malaria Foundation giving us an update on where our donations have gone. As you will see, 100% of the donations from you have funded 19,016 long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) to protect more than 34,000 people when they sleep at night from the bites of malaria-carrying mosquitoes, that would otherwise cause severe illness, or worse. That’s 68 entire villages covered thanks to you. Brilliant.... 68 villages is worth celebrating, for sure. We’re only a small company, just starting out, and yet our impact on the lives of others can be huge. 68 villages kind of huge. Imagine the impact other, bigger, businesses could have. Or your family’s Secret Santa could have, or your workplace’s charity drive. From the personal, to the start-up, to the corporate, we can all be having a major impact on the world around us by making informed and effective choices about our giving. The Against Malaria Foundation is one of the top performing charities when it comes to ensuring the highest yield of positive effect from every dollar, and that’s why at Give Industries they remain one of our major recipient charities.

08.01.2022 This is sobering news. The pandemic has had a huge effect on the global poor. For almost 25 years, extreme poverty has been steadily declining, but a recent World Bank report shares that in 2020, for the first time in a generation, the quest to end poverty has suffered its worst setback Now, more than ever, highly effective charities targeting reduction of extreme poverty need support. We’re committed to our continued support via donations to our recipient charity GiveDirec...tly, who do vital work in delivering cash directly to those living in extreme poverty. https://www.worldbank.org//global-action-urgently-needed-t
