The
BetterWorld Project, a project of the nonprofit, We, The World, is one of a growing
number of efforts to unite the many existing movements for change, in order to
create an alternate paradigm that anyone can easily plug into.
One
of our goals is to help convince individuals, corporate sponsors and foundations
to invest in nonprofits that are working to create this alternate paradigm that
is emerging.
People
donate to nonprofits, hoping their money will be used to help make life better.
But there are SO MANY worthy causes that people often feel overwhelmed by solicitations
for donations.
Most
of the causes that nonprofits promote are extremely important, valuable, and often
urgent calls to address an immediate need or injustice. But the millions of important
causes are mostly symptoms of a system that isn't working properly. If society
decided that working to create a better world was a priority, ALL of the injustices
that nonprofits are working to address would be addressed as well.
Every
dollar that philanthropists and individuals give to organizations like We, The
World, which are helping transform society's attitude about 'creating a better
world', actually helps millions of individual causes as well. Popularizing a wish
for a better world is the ONLY WAY that we can truly transform society, because
only then can we address the root causes that perpetuate the current broken system.
