Help Those Living in Extreme Poverty

EH Active’s philanthropy goals are aligned with the goals of The Life You Can Save that was co-founded by Charlie Bresler (the founder of EH Active also). The idea is to offer donors, well-researched, high impact, cost-effective nonprofits that save lives and/or empower livelihoods for people living in poverty in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. EH Active looks to encourage both effective philanthropy and a community that supports exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle — the idea is feel good, do good.

During each challenge we will support a nonprofit that has been carefully vetted by The Life You Can Save. We hope our members will donate and we will also encourage others as well. But feel free to support any of The Life You Can Save's nonprofits – and, of course, others that you feel are highly impactful and cost-effective. Our hope is that the community will encourage everyone to consider donating to the selected nonprofit during each “challenge.”

Can you think of a better use for your money?

The December challenge will be different. I’d like to have everyone choose a nonprofit from The Life You Can Save's best charities and donate as much as you’d like – no limit 🙂 (If you're donating on The Life You Can Save's website, don't forget to mention EH Active when it asks "How did you hear about us?").

There will be no other monthly donation request for December. It would also be great–and hopefully motivating to others– if you could share with the group why you chose that nonprofit. You could post your comment in the BeWell app.

Please make your donation before Christmas, and remember all donations for those of you in the U.S. are tax-deductible. (The January challenge will not involve a donation, but rather will be a recruitment drive.)
