Word & Deed is setting up a number of regional business groups across North America, following the example of Woord en Daad in The Netherlands, where this approach has been used with great success over the past few years. As a member of this group, you will be able to pool your donation with that of other members to support a sizeable project. It further provides an opportunity to connect and identify with that project. From afar, you can watch it make a life-changing impact on countless lives. There will also be an opportunity for members of your group to periodically visit the projects your group supports.

The business group program provides an opportunity for business people (you need not own your own business) to form a local group, to choose a project, to give an anonymous pledge towards the project and to have representatives of the group visit the project once it is completed. Updates are provided to the group periodically and the group meets once a year to hear about the project and to choose a new project for the next year.
