Ambitious generosity among young leaders, for the glory of God.
From Yale to Berkeley and Dallas to Boston, driven young professionals like us are embracing radical biblical generosity—and it’s not about guilt or duty. It’s about Christ’s invitation to abundant life (Acts 20:35).
We see our earning potential as a chance to raise our standard of giving rather than our standard of living; all to the goal of being Generous Now.

We acknowledge that everything we have comes from God. As such, we will strive to work in order to give and live with more of a war-time mentality. We will plan for a cash spending / saving finish line and aim to give any raises, equity payouts, or bonuses away.
