As Giving Tuesday approaches, it's time to consider how we can all make a larger positive impact on the world. At EarlyBird, we're passionate about empowering families to build a better financial future for their kids. This year, we have invested a lot more time in partnering with amazing nonprofits and foundations aligned to our shared mission of building a better financial future for ALL families.
We have chosen five incredible non-profits, each making a unique contribution towards this goal. Here's a guide to these organizations, how your contribution can make a difference, and how your awareness can amplify their presence.

They do this by creating a world where everyone has equal access to financial knowledge and resources. They provide financial education and support to underserved communities.
