Many Benefits For Businesses When They Sign Up
Business, large and small, all over the world, will benefit in lots of different ways when they register their charity foundation or CSR activities as one of the causes listed on The Wisdom Trust website. These benefits could include:-
A) Regular Funding For Their Charitable Work
B) Grants For Staff, Families & Customers
C) Additional Funding Through Wisdom Trust Credits
D) Volunteering Portal
E) Extra Publicity For Their Campaigns, News & Events
F) Build-Back Grants, Hardship Fund & Much More
A) Regular Funding For Their Charitable Work
By registering with The Wisdom Trust, a business will benefit from a completely new source of regular funding for their charity foundation or ‘Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities – helping to deliver better outcomes for the people, causes and communities they support.
We make donations from our Donations Fund every three months and it’s the people who use our website who are able to vote to help decide which charities, good causes and other not for profit organisations get a share of the funds available. The value of each donation is based on how many votes each cause gets. So. for example, a charity foundation with 10% of votes in a quarter will get 10% of the fund or a cause with 1% of the votes will get 1% of the fund.
Members can vote every day if they wish – sometimes more than once a day – for their favourite causes. So encourage all your staff, families and customers (and possibly even your suppliers too) to register on The Wisdom Trust – free of charge – so they can vote for you. it couldn’t be more simple.

B) Grants For Staff, Families And Customers
So as well as voting for your charity fund to get regular donations from The Wisdom Trust, your staff, their families and your customers will also be able to enjoy new and exciting learning opportunities.
Furthermore, they’ll be able to share their own wisdom and knowledge with our other users by submitting facts, items and questions of their own. They could even aspire to become one of our accredited editors or moderators.
At the same time, while they’re learning or contributing, they’ll earn special Wisdom Trust Credits which will not only divert more funds to your cause – plus any of their other favourite causes, but which will also contribute towards their own personal Wisdom Trust Grant Fund.
This could assist them with funding for eco projects, help with course fees when they go to university, or money towards healthier food options or heating their home in Winter.

C) Additional Funding Through Wisdom Trust Credits
Your staff, families and supporters will be awarded special Wisdom Trust Credits via our online learning programs and can aspire to be top of the Hall of Fame – daily, weekly or monthly – with certificates of achievement when they finish in the top positions.
Every time one of your supporters earns a Credit, this will add additional value to the funds set aside for your cause over the current three-month donations window. Quite simply, every time any staff member or other supporter introduced by a business, clocks up 250 Credits, we’ll award an extra 100 Credits to their charity fund. And more Credits equates to a larger share of our quarterly Credits Fund.
But even better than that, when your staff and supporters introduce their own friends, family and colleagues, our ‘unique ‘community network’ model will recognise the link between them so every time these new members earn Credits, some small additional value (by way of additional Credits) will filter up to your charity fund as well.
Your staff and supporters will all be awarded Credits when they participate in our learning and information programs or even when they use our Market Place for any of their normal online shopping at any of thousands of popular online stores and merchants – all at no extra cost or inconvenience to themselves.
In effect, what this means is your business charity fund could not only benefit from your own staff and supporters’ learning and online shopping, but also, to a lesser degree, from the learning and online shopping of their friends and family too – and so on. So make sure you use the tools provided elsewhere in the website to introduce as many of your own staff, customers and other supporters as possible. Then encourage them to do the same.
The Bank Of Wisdom
When the business itself – or indeed any of its supporters, staff or families – submits new items for our Library of Wisdom, they’ll earn additional Credits for each item they submit (once it’s approved). Once they’re live on our system, whenever someone else views, likes or shares any of those items, or answers any of their questions, the original contributor will earn a further Credit.
So by building up a collection – large or small – of submitted items within the Library of Wisdom, any charity or good cause or any of their supporters, will be creating a special ‘Bank of Wisdom’ which will keep earning Credits, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – and adding to the funds set aside for their nominated cause every quarter.
Such items for submission can be about the four big issues of poverty, environment, healthcare and world peace, or about anything else of interest to the member – including subjects such as history, geography, science, music or literature. Items could also be about local issues, culture or even the history of local organisations, landmarks or sports clubs. Furthermore, users can submit items such as tips (eco, health or thrifty), quotations, jokes, recipes or reviews (books, movies, music, places or theatre for example).
If other users find the facts, questions or other items interesting, then they’ll like or share them or answer the questions and the original contributor – and their nominated favourite good causes – will benefit – every time!
As part of our mission to help our members increase their knowledge and wisdom, we plan a big expansion in our education provision and will continue to add new, interesting and exciting educational programmes on our website, all of which will earn members Credits to help their favourite cause and build up their own personal Wisdom Trust Grant Fund.
To kick things off, we recommend that members use our community section to join any groups that interest them and enjoy all the learning opportunities they provide. They can comment on and add to any discussions they find there or even start their own groups about subjects that interest them. And everything they do will earn them even more Credits. They’ll even earn Credits when other members join their groups or comment on, add to or share any of their discussions.
It’s so easy!! Get involved today.

D) Volunteering Portal
All our members will be able to participate in a whole range of volunteering roles with The Wisdom Trust and with any of our partner organisations, available via our website.
So, once registered, any charity or good cause will be able to list all their current volunteering roles on our website, free of charge, so all our members can see them and then possibly apply.

E) Extra Publicity For Your Campaigns, News & Events
We’re happy to offer any of our media platforms, including our website and social media pages to help publicise any of the latest news, campaigns or upcoming events for any of our registered organisations.
A simple portal available via each organisation’s profile will enable authorised officers to submit details and even images too, which will then feature throughout The Wisdom Trust. In this way more of our users will be able to learn about all your important campaigns and events and offer their support.
F) Build-Back Grants, Hardship Funds And Much More
Our goal is to keep adding new services to help businesses all over the world. These will almost always be offered at zero cost to our partner organisations, but if not free then they will be at very low cost to save businesses money on things they do already.
We’re working on an idea to help businesses with Build-Back Grants as well as setting up Hardship Funds for their styaff who have been negatively impacted by the Covid pandemic.
We’ll aim to help in any way we can to assist businesses, including promoting their products and services on our Market Place and highlighting any special offers and seasonal discounts. We’re also planning a new service where our business experts could audit various parts of a company’s operations to see where savings can be made.
