Give the gift of a better world
Support the Pop!Tech Accelerator and help world-changing projects thrive
|
With the holiday season upon us, the annual dash to find unique and meaningful gift ideas begins anew. With this in mind, Pop!Tech has introduced an easy way for anyone to make a 100% tax deductible donation to the Pop!Tech Accelerator: a groundbreaking social innovation incubator working to foster breakthrough solutions to pressing global challenges. Your gift will help advance the world-changing work happening throughout the Pop!Tech network, and can be directed towards one of two distinctive programs:
|
Project Masiluleke
A signature program of the Pop!Tech Accelerator, Project Masiluleke is the largest-ever use of mobile devices for the delivery of HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) care. The program has pioneered a breakthrough approach to these global public health crises and is presently reaching up to one million South Africans each day – delivering life-saving healthcare information and helping catalyze increased testing. Your support can help Project Masiluleke’s world-class partner set expand this multi-phase program in South Africa and around the globe.

Supporting Project Masiluleke or the Pop!Tech Accelerator – in honor or memory of a friend or loved one – will make for an original and thoughtful holiday gift. Additionally, as a token of our appreciation, we’ll send the recipient of your gift a special creative expression from acclaimed graphic designer Marian Bantjes. For a gift of $250 or more, you will also receive a beautiful, limited edition print Marian created to reflect the theme of Pop!Tech 2008: "Scarcity and Abundance." See Marian’s heartfelt presentation from Pop!Tech ’08, where she shares touching personal stories, stunning design work and thoughts on the inspiration to be found in our everyday routines.
This holiday season marks the first time Pop!Tech is enabling individuals to directly support the work of the Pop!Tech accelerator. The move comes in response to interest from across the Pop!Tech community and the organization’s expansion – working year-round to effect scalable, replicable and sustainable social change. Pop!Tech will continue to accept personal donations to Project Masiluleke and the Accelerator in 2009 and beyond.
