TestimonialsGivingPoint enables teens to find their passion and connect with a global community of supporters. We are fueling their giving hearts and creating a world of civic leaders, one teen at a time. Here are what students, nonprofits, and schools are saying about GivingPoint:
"It is a great honor to receive the GivingPoint grant award because I do work hard to serve those in need," Steves says. "More importantly, I hope I inspire other teenagers to get on GivingPoint and fuel their passions. I want my work with the YMCA and GivingPoint to help others become more involved in their communities. GivingPoint is allowing me to aid the work of my local YMCA, and that simply 'rocks my socks.'" - Lauren Steves, first teen to reach 1,500 points and reward $750 in GivingPoint grants to the YMCA.
"GivingPoint has added a new philanthropic platform to our teen programs. Through GivingPoint, teens who never dreamed of donating money and supporting causes they care about are becoming raging philanthropists. GivingPoint is helping to create a generation of life-long contributors, and we are truly grateful to have this program at the YMCA." - Wesley Bender, Metro Atlanta YMCA director of teen initiatives.
"We look forward to seeing the points add up, the civic transcripts fill up, and the many charities benefit from the wonderful grants earned by our students." - Hershell Bennett, Assistant Principal, Alpharetta High School
"I can proudly say that My GivingPoint profile was instrumental to my bid for the Simon Scholarship. They were very impressed by the amount of money I had raised, and the GivingPoint award I recieved last year. It is one thing to volunteer, but being able to offer money to non-profits is a luxury unavailable to most!"
- Forest Ogunyankin, GivingPoint Teen Advisor, Member of the Dunwoody YMCA
