The ThinkGive Difference
Easy to Teach
Lesson plans are aligned with SEL and academic standards, and integrate seamlessly with existing curricula.
Flexible
The program can be tailored to suit each teacher’s schedule, goals, and classroom needs.
Impactful
Provides an authentic learning experience that successfully moves the needle on prosocial skills.
"ThinkGive challenged me to think of others first and what I can do for them. I learned that my actions are powerful."
“I learned that by giving, I can make new friends, achieve trust from others, and become a better person.”
"Our whole class was affected by ThinkGive. It changed people’s mindsets, which changed our class."
“ThinkGive has and will help me be a more considerate, thoughtful, and compassionate person."
“ThinkGive made me recognize how I treat others, how they treat me, and how I treat myself.”
"ThinkGive taught me to be more aware of people around me and that my presence matters."
“I learned to focus on the good things happening around me, rather than the bad.”
"I learned that being kind to someone in the smallest way can change how they feel the rest of the day."
“I now know how far a simple act of kindness can carry a person. I will be nicer to people.”
"I learned you can't change others, but you can change yourself and view people from a different perspective."
