Generocksity - Calgary

Generocksity is a completely student-run non-profit organization* dedicated to educating young adults on the importance of philanthropy and how easily it can be integrated into their daily lives to help develop life-long habits of effective giving. According to Stats Canada (2013), young adults aged 20-24 make up the least philanthropic population in Canada and are the least likely to donate their time or money in any amount. We believe this is an issue of poor education rather than poor intentions and that given the proper motivation and precise tools to take initiative, our generation can become leaders and innovators in effective philanthropy. Beginning with only 5 teenagers in November 2013, Generocksity has quickly grown into a organization with over 100 active team members distributed across seven of Canada's largest universities and New York City. While building a reputation for holding tremendously fun and inspiring events that significantly benefit the local community, Generocksity as a whole has engaged over 7, 500 young adults and raised over $100, 000 for more than 25 local charities. *Generocksity is incorporated under the Canada Not-For-Profit Corporations Act
