The Giving Back Foundation




 The Giving Back Foundation was established in 2010 by Meera Gandhi with the support of her husband Vikram Gandhi as a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) organization. Its beneficiaries are carefully selected existing charities around the world, with special emphasis on women and children in need.

 Directly assisting education of women and children, addressing illness, poverty and suffering are the primary activities of the Giving Back Foundation, whose motto is, "We are to the universe only as much as we give back to it."
The Foundation also exists as a platform for debate and discussion, as philanthropic activities continue to evolve around the world.


THIS IS A GREAT ORGANIZATION IN SUPPORT OF A WORTHY CAUSE. PLEASE VISIT THEIR WEBSITE AND CONTRIBUTE WHAT YOU CAN:

Teachers, these are your students... WELCOME TO THE 21st CENTURY!

This project was created to inspire teachers to use technology in engaging ways to help students develop higher level thinking skills. Equally important, it serves to motivate district level leaders to provide teachers with the tools and training to do so.




This awesome video was produced by B. Nesbitt.
