For years, Glenn, Kim and Generation Give have worked through partner non-profits Asante Network and Plant with Purpose to help improve the lives of students and teachers in the Mt.Kilimanjaro region in Tanzania. Your wedding gift donation will educate schools on effective gardening to grow their own produce for student meals and provide essential supplies to a personally selected school.

Plus Generation Give will double the first $2500 in donations to make this a wedding gift that will truly “endure and grow”.

Thank You!

Matching Matters!

Generation Give was proud to help sponsor Audrey Malfavon (that’s Audrey on the horse!) with her and her parents fundraising effort for the Shea Center. Audrey’s dad Fidel, wrote the nice note below…what a great way to use our $1000 Match Program!

Subject: Thank You! 

We just wanted to thank everybody who participated in Audrey’s fundraiser. The support we received was overwhelming! Our goal was $500 but thanks to Gen-Give, we were able to raise $3205! The money we raised for Shea Center will go towards the care of Audrey’s furry friends as well as scholarships for kids that can’t afford the very important therapy.

Thanks again,
Fidel, Amber, Audrey, Cain, John and Deb

The Island Image / Kluver Artworks

Over 80 guests were in attendance Saturday, June 18, for an open studio show hosted by photographer and artist David Kluver at his Kluver Artworks Studio in Laguna Beach.

Kluver is known primarily for sepia fine art images of island landscapes and his work with corporate brands. Six framed art pieces from Kluver’s new series “Aloha Sessions 2011” were sold and a raffle was held to benefit Generation Give; focusing on an orphanage in Haiti.  The artist says he plans to travel to Haiti later this year and deliver the funds to the orphanage himself.  “To be able to see the faces of those we are helping, especially the children, is very important to me, “ Kluver said.

Half of all art sold from Kluver’s website or from his Facebook page “The Island Image” in July will go to Generation Give. To purchase art, visit www.theislandimage.com.
