Together we bring out the good in ALL kids.
Through hands-on learning experiences, The Giving Square reimagines how children learn to see, care, and act for the good of others.
What happens when you give a classroom real money and ask students to decide together how to give it away?
At The Giving Square, we find out every day.
Kids ask questions, listen to the needs of people in their communities, debate what matters most, and decide where the money should go.
Adults guide the process, but the choices belong to the kids, and so does the power to make a difference.
Kids are natural helpers. What they need are real opportunities and supports to act on that instinct.
