What We Do
More and more people, tired of buying and receiving yet more stuff, are showing their love in a more meaningful way. They honor births, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and graduations with donations made in a friend’s name. Until now, it has been too difficult for nonprofits to offer the requisite gift-like experience (tangible charitable opportunities, wish lists & registries, and personalized printed greeting cards). Now, ChangingThePresent.org makes it easy. In fact, the New York Times called us "an amazon.com of the nonprofit world." What You Will Gain from the Experience
Join us for your alternative break. You will:
  • Make a big impact in the world. You will help channel to nonprofits addressing your favorite causes some of the $450 billion Americans spend each year on presents. That will enable them to do their important work.
  • Use your skills, experience, knowledge, creativity and talent.
  • Assume responsibility and take a leadership role.
  • Learn a tremendous amount.
  • Work with great people from around the world and have a great time.
  • Enhance your resume with a record of achievement and community service.

Focus on Your Field of Study or Your Favorite Cause
  • You can focus on your professional field of studies, including Human Resources (HR), graphics, marketing, social media, communications, finance, business, tech (computer science, information technology, etc.), supply chain management, or accounting.
  • You can also focus on your favorite cause, including any of those listed below.

About Changing The Present

Location:

401 7th Avenue, level B, New York, NY 10001, US

Mission Statement

We are launching our new website, which involves inviting the participation of all one million nonprofits, providing each with their own private gift site, and promoting this growing social norm: You don’t have to buy stuff to show your love; instead, you can do something meaningful in a friend’s name.

Description

ChangingThePresent is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, which helps channel to nonprofits some of the $250 Americans spend each year on birthday, holiday, and other gifts, by making the experience of giving a donation in a friend’s name feel like a gift with tangible giving opportunities, wish lists, registries, and beautiful, personalized printed greeting cards. The New York Times referred to the site as an "amazon.com of the nonprofit world." You may recognize this as the approach proven by Heifer International, which raises $115 million a year by letting people donate to fund farm animals in a friend’s name. If farm animals can attract that much money, imagine how much is available for more popular causes.
