iSquared Giving (iSG) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Austin, Texas. We are committed to philanthropy education, engagement, and agency. Our mission is to inspire and enable more informed and intentional (i²) generosity by all, in all forms.
We bridge the gap between the desire to contribute and the reality of finite resources by educating, engaging, and empowering people of all backgrounds—particularly college students, donors, and highly educated prospects—to plan for and practice diverse and purposeful giving. Further, by equipping individuals to evaluate their giving experience and impact, we help them refine their approach and discover the joy of making a difference. Ultimately, through smart giving, we can tangibly shape a better world and realize personal fulfillment even with modest means.
Note on the Prioritized Audience: The iSG is accountable to the public, but we prioritize engaging donors alongside college students and well-educated prospects. Donors are likely interested in maximizing their impact, whereas these well-educated prospects demonstrate a higher capacity and propensity for grassroots philanthropic engagement.
College students often have limited disposable income, but they are uniquely positioned to engage in non-financial forms of giving at any time and build toward significant financial contributions in the years following graduation. Similarly, well-educated prospects—who may face their own resource constraints—will benefit from our curated knowledge and evaluation tools to plan their giving, measure and maximize the impact of their philanthropic efforts.
