Q&A 1

What type of Organizations does eMite support?

The donation of one's Mite is a great thing. The use of one's Mite is a solemn task that eMite takes with utmost effort to ensure the greatest impact and stewardship. With this in mind, we seek out the most active organizations in their areas of operation.

eMite assigns our donors' Mites toward humanitarian related relief. Our donors' Mites go toward aid of hunger, illness, disease, poverty, and other ailments affecting humanity.

eMite seeks out organizations that are actively participating in the services they provide. We desire to assist these organizations in impacting the people they serve. Finding, researching, and funding organizations with outstanding records in philanthropy is what makes eMite such an exceptional resource for the giver. We are jealous of the use of your Mite.


Q&A 2

How does eMite engage children in giving?

Children are the most valuable asset our world possesses. They are the future of our societies, and they will be responsible for carrying on the giving after we are gone. eMite desires to actively inspire and engage children in the impact a life of giving can accomplish.

We encourage parents and leaders to engage children in participating in giving. By providing a platform that informs the giver of the impact of their Mite, we hope that families will be blessed to encourage all its members in giving. Through eMite, parents can show their children how giving touches lives around the world. Once this is accomplished, the seed of giving is planted, and the child will do the rest.

How does eMite get videos of each individual project supported?

eMite is all about letting its donors know how their Mite is used. The project videos are a vital part of our engagement of the giver. We go to great lengths to make sure that every project has it's own unique, on-site, video produced to show the eMiters how their Mites were used and who they touched by their giving.

The "sauce" behind the video is secret. Suffice it to say some dedicated, talented people love being infield when projects are completed and to celebrate with those who are thankful for the generosity of eMiters!

We would rather live in a perfect world, but we do not. However, eMite is jealous of your Mite. We will not use it on a failed project.
