" I'm excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it gives me a platform to collaborate with like-minded individuals who are passionate about making a positive impact. I do this work because I believe that every step towards sustainability and equality creates a ripple effect that can change lives "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Box of Equality

The "Box of Equality" initiative addresses key challenges in donation practices, including negligence, mismatched contributions, lack of tracking, and limited motivation for regular giving. By promoting thoughtful and need-based donations, it ensures that each contribution has a meaningful impact.
The project emphasizes preparing the next generation to practice responsible giving through gamified systems and awareness programs. Donors can choose items from an online inventory or assemble personalized boxes, which are delivered to recipients by a dedicated team. Feedback is collected and shared with donors, who also earn "Charity Points" for their contributions, motivating consistent involvement.
With a focus on transparency, accountability, and inclusivity, this initiative strives to make charitable giving a regular and impactful activity, fostering a culture of equality and empathy in society.
