Mite be right

We “Mite” be the Right Match for your Family’s Giving

So, your family is keen to use your resources for positive impact in the world around you, but is unsure where to start. That’s where we come in. Mite is here to help your family navigate your philanthropic journey with ideas to excite you about your family's legacy of positive impact and a process to support it.

Getting Started

A useful starting point is to facilitate a family meeting. Gather your members of all generations in a thought-provoking discussion.

Ask questions like:

"What causes or social issues most interest you or do you feel passionate about?”

“If our family could make a significant impact through giving, what cause or issue would you like to address first?"

"What cause do you think more people should know about and why?"

Encourage each family member to contribute their perspective so you can determine key areas to focus on.

Vetting Non-Profits

Once you know the causes that appeal most to your family, research non-profit organizations that champion these causes.

Mite offers a portfolio of initiatives across various focus areas such as education equity, women’s health and empowerment, clean water and access to sanitation, disability, and medical care. One or a few projects might speak to your family’s values and touch your hearts.

We recommend viewing a few of our project Celebration Stories. These are an insightful way to discover how we work and what kind of follow up you can expect when engaging Mite in support of your family's giving program.

As Mite is committed to demonstrating all our donors’ impact through total awareness, we share photos, videos, stats and stories from the field and report them straight to you. We believe actions speak louder than words, so we ensure transparent giving with transparent outcomes.

Turn Intention in Action

Now that you have found some organizations that align with your family’s vision and goals, it's time to get to know these non-profits better. Contact your chosen charities and chat about how your family could support them.

Mite is ready to meet your family in person or online and answer any questions you may have. We have a range of resources available for your use. We've got you covered, whether it's annual reports, videos, advice on establishing a family foundation fund or DAF, fundraising ideas, volunteering opportunities, etc. Get in touch with us to start your family giving program today.
