Small PlanetLet a little flow back.
We all share one small planet. A gentle pause before your treats lets part of each one do some good.
How it works
Gentle by design.
- 1
You pick the apps
Uber Eats, Amazon, whatever counts as a treat for you.
- 2
A quick pause
See how far the money goes. Add 10% to your tab, if you like.
- 3
Yes or no, both are fine
Either way: “Enjoy!” Say no often and it backs off.
- 4
Give once a month
Straight to the charity. We never touch your money.
What a little does
Small amounts move real things.
13 little clay things hide in this meadow. Each one is something a small gift really does.
All of us
Nobody has to do much. We just all do a little.
If 1,000 of us each added about $3 a month, that's $3,000 every month. It could do any one of these:
500
bed nets delivered
3,000
trees planted
3,000
children dewormed
1,500
years of vitamin A for a child
100
months of school support for a girl
42
cataract surgeries
Rounded down from each charity's or GiveWell's published cost. Find the objects in the grass for the sources.
The pause
Not a guilt trip. Just a pause, and a choice.
Opening Uber Eats · $32
Let a little flow back. $32 is about 5 malaria bed nets.
Add 10% ($3.20) to your giving tab?
Try it. Either answer gets a friendly “Enjoy!”
Ways to give
Good places to start.
Charities experts trust, moments when gifts get matched, and ways to go further.
