Here’s how it all started.
Simple Charity began as a high school club that raised over $60,000 to fight global poverty in Jesus’s Name in 2014. The next year, we learned that half of those funds went to a charity that may have misused the money. We spent the next ten years researching giving opportunities that promote human flourishing to the glory of God.
We now support over 40 college chapters around the country that grow in their faith and in solidarity with people experiencing poverty and injustice. We also offer philanthropic advising for people giving $10k - $1M+ per year.
OUR IMPACT
These results reflect our growth from inception in 2019 to 2024.
