Background
Founded in early 2003, Wisdom4All was a not-for-profit initiative which was established by two young and largely inexperienced entrepreneurs with the undeveloped embryo of an idea of using the internet to help increase general awareness about the important issues affecting the future of our planet – especially poverty, healthcare, environment and world peace. Alongside this, they built a simple website to raise funds online in order to support charities and good causes in the UK and elsewhere.
Full charity status was applied for a couple of years later and in November 2005, The Wisdom Trust was born.
Operating across the international community, we continue to engage with individuals of all age groups and backgrounds, as well as charitable organisations and private companies. Through this growing network, we strive to spread the word even wider and support more and more people and organisations.
Such organisations now include schools, hospitals, youth groups, cultural projects, environment initiatives, sports clubs and other vital local community groups. But this is still just the beginning… There is so much more we can do.
Revenue is driven by working with organisations such as Awin.
Action Plan
Since we started, many thousands of people, of all ages and backgrounds and from all over the world, have joined our cause by signing up online. Over 500 charities and good causes have registered so far and with the funds we raised so far, we’ve been able to make donations to dozens of charities. But we’ve only just begun.
We operate a minimalist approach, being run and managed entirely by volunteers, many of whom have full-time jobs elsewhere or who are still in full-time education. We strive continuously to keep our overheads low so as much of our income as possible can be used to support the other charities and good causes with whom we work.
Over the years, we benefitted enormously from having the skills and expertise of many brilliant volunteers on our team and we’re now ready to unleash a better, bigger and more exciting website to raise even more funds and support many more charities, good causes and all sort of other not-for-profit organisations all over the world.
Our goal is to become an organisation reaching out to communities on every continent – the mother of all charities – supporting as many other causes as we can, not only with extra funding but also with additional publicity for their campaigns and activities. And alongside all that, we aim to create a global learning society where people of all ages can increase and share their knowledge and understanding about the big issues affecting the future of our planet – poverty, environment, world peace and global healthcare – as well as about all sorts of other interesting subjects too.
We believe that by working together, we really can make our communities better, safer, cleaner, healthier, secure and more sustainable places to live – wherever we are in the world. With this in mind, we hope to establish a global network of people and organisations to harness the power of our collective sharing of friendship, knowledge and wisdom for the benefit of our planet, our children and all our future generations.
