Who we are
A Movement Powered by the People
At One Dollar for Change, we believe that small contributions, when combined, can create life-changing impact. Our nonprofit is built on the idea that if enough people give just $1, we can provide real and immediate relief to those in need.
How We Got Started
The idea was simple: What if we could build a movement where every single person—regardless of financial situation—could contribute just $1 toward helping others? That one small act could lead to feeding families, keeping the lights on for struggling households, helping job seekers get to interviews, and providing emergency relief when it’s needed most.
We started One Dollar for Change with a vision of bridging the gap for people who fall through the cracks of traditional assistance programs. Whether it’s a single parent who needs car repairs to keep working, an elderly neighbor struggling with prescription costs, or a small business owner trying to stay afloat—our mission is to provide help when it matters most.
About Us – One Dollar for Change
What we stand for
Community First – Every dollar raised goes directly toward helping individuals, families, and small businesses.
No Barriers to Giving – Anyone can contribute, and no amount is too small to make an impact.
Transparency & Trust – We ensure that every donation is used responsibly and with full accountability.
People Helping People – This movement belongs to everyone, and together, we create lasting change.
How Does It Work?
Every $1 adds up – Whether you give once or monthly, your small contribution joins thousands of others to create a big impact.
We identify real needs – From overdue utility bills to providing winter coats for children, we focus on real people in real situations.
We act fast – Instead of waiting on red tape, we work directly with those in need to provide immediate assistance.
The more we grow, the bigger the change – As more people join the movement, we expand our reach and impact even further.
Our Vision for the Future
We are starting locally in Yuma, AZ, but our goal is to expand nationally so that people across the country can benefit from the power of collective giving.
As we grow, we aim to:
Launch community assistance programs to directly support those in need.
Partner with small businesses and local organizations to multiply our impact.
Expand our corporate sponsorships so that businesses can join the movement too.
Create an emergency relief fund to provide immediate help for urgent situations.
