Genius Groups That Inspire Us

There’s nothing like surprising loved ones with the perfect gift for Christmas, but giving is about more than presents piled under the tree.

At SignUpGenius, we are honored to help millions of you give back during the holidays and all year. During this season of generosity, we want to spotlight a few of the people and groups who have inspired us by making an impact in their communities and beyond.
