Hello.

It's nice to meet you.

Project World Impact is the leading nonprofit hub providing innovative ways for people to connect with and support nonprofits.

Who We Are

Whether you're a local nonprofit seeking to eradicate hunger in your local community or an international organization supporting clean water initiatives around the world, Project World Impact wants to supply you with a platform to significantly increase your fundraising, improve your visibility, and further your mission.

We also designed our site with individual users in mind. If you’re looking for a nonprofit to support, you can search by any country in the world or one of our cause categories. You can then learn more about specific nonprofits by reading their profile, donate to support the work they’re doing, and follow them to receive regular updates about their work.

History

The vision for PWI was born when our founder and CEO, Chris Lesner, decided to apply his extensive marketing expertise to help nonprofits raise money, gain visibility, and further their mission.

Before launching PWI, Chris helped start a successful marketing company with dozens of clients—including a number of famous Fortune 500 companies. However, he realized that nonprofits, both large and small, had a unique set of needs: more funding, more volunteers, and more visibility.

After being inspired by the needs of the nonprofits he encountered, Chris left his company and assembled the PWI team. Each team member at PWI is skilled, hard-working, and passionate about helping nonprofits connect with supporters and expand their impact.
