How the

Good Need Project

Works

null

Good Need Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity founded in Texas. Our mission is to uplift struggling families with grants and financial education, and establish a sense of community around positive impact. We focus our impact on low-income families that inspire others with their resilience through their own hard times.

Good Need Project operates in two ways

Giving Campaigns and Financial Education

Giving Campaigns

 

Our Giving Campaigns are generally 8 weeks long. We turn donations into two different types of financial grants

Campaign Grants

Campaign Grants are designed to create maximum impact for low-income families. The number of Campaign Grants given per campaign is completely scalable to the amount of donations we receive. Campaign Grants are a minimum of $5000 with a goal of up to $10,000 and are delivered at the end of each campaign to low-income families that have passed GNP application, vetting, and selection process.

Micro-Grants

During each campaign, we will partner with local churches and nonprofits to find families that we can support through weekly Micro-grants. Micro-grants are between $250 and $500 depending on the need of the individual. Micro-grants allow us to buy gift cards for groceries, get the car out of the shop, subsidize rent, or any other immediate need for a struggling family that local nonprofits have vetted.

Financial Education

 

Our Financial Education efforts are what set us apart. Good Need Project was established, not just as a community of giving, but also of learning, teaching, and mentoring.

Financial Education

After selecting a grant recipient, we want to ensure we are setting them up for success. Through our application process, we will gain a full picture of the grant recipient’s financial situation. We use this information to develop the strategy for disbursement of the grant as well as a plan to improve their financial standing. The same financial concepts we use to coach our grant recipients to financial stability, we also plan to teach in seminars to young student who are about to enter the workforce. Topics of these seminars include budgeting, credit score, insurance, buying a house, and investing for retirement.
