what past participants say:

"Everyone has dreams about projects they'd like to complete, but to actually *do* said project is a different matter because we'll always find some reason why we can't or don't have time. With money and accountability from the Contribution Project, I made it happen.”

A 2024 Contribution Project Participant
"The most rewarding part of this experience was seeing the real difference we made in people's lives. We brought mental health resources and support to those who needed it most, and it was incredibly fulfilling to know we were making a tangible impact."

A 2024 Contribution Project Participant
"I felt more freedom to fulfill my mission because I had some money to work with... This project gave me the chance to realize my passion of bringing speech and debate to underserved communities. I am so excited to see students learn critical thinking skills and become more engaged in civics."
