About Us
Our Story
At 1 Dollar From Everyone, we started with a simple question: “How much will $1 change your life?” For most of us, the answer is “not much.” But what if millions of people gave just $1 each? Together, we could make an extraordinary impact on families across the country.
This idea sparked the creation of our charity—a community-driven movement to pool small contributions and turn them into lasting, life-changing opportunities. We focus on creating sustainable solutions that empower families and provide long-term support, ensuring that every dollar donated makes a meaningful difference.
Core Values
Our Mission
We are committed to harnessing the collective power of small, consistent donations to:
- Help families achieve financial stability.
- Support sustainable programs like our Solar Savings initiative.
- Provide targeted assistance to underserved groups, including middle-class families, disabled veterans, and the families of fallen first responders.
Our mission goes beyond temporary fixes. We aim to offer programs that create enduring benefits—helping families not just survive, but thrive.
one small step at a time
Our Vision
We envision a future where communities come together to lift each other up. By inspiring collective action, we believe we can:
- Reduce financial stress for families.
- Foster sustainable living practices.
- Create a supportive network for those who need it most.
One dollar may seem small, but when combined with the contributions of others, it becomes a force for change.
Our Programs
At 1 Dollar From Everyone, we focus on solutions that offer lasting impact.
At the moment our primary initiative is:
The Solar Savings Program: Helping families reduce utility costs with grants for solar panel installation.
We are looking to expand our offerings to include multiple programs in 2026 and beyond.
As we are a newly founded charity, we felt it was best to narrow our focus… “do one thing well… or many things poorly.”
If you have ideas of programs that you think would be a good fit, please reach out to us directly. We would love to hear from you!
Our Funds
We felt it was important for donors to be able to specify where their money is going. Giving is a very personal decision, and we thank you for the opportunity to help others with your donations.
We have the following funds to choose from when making your donation.
The Middle-Class Relief Fund
Providing aid to families often overlooked by traditional assistance programs.
Focusing on one of the often neglected groups of families. They are doing everything right the way we’ve been told our whole lives, but are caught in the middle between needs based financial assistance and true financial success. They typically make “too much” money to qualify for assistance, but often bear the weight of rising costs from inflation the most.
The Disabled Veteran Fund
Supporting those who served our country and now face financial challenges.
Focusing on those that answered the call for their nation and will bear the physical and mental cost of that commitment for their entire lives. The pride that drove them to answer the call is also the same pride that holds this group back from seeking help when they need it the most. Disabled veterans are one of the largest at-risk groups that teeter between financial stability and homelessness.
The Fallen Heroes Fund
Offering financial assistance to families of first responders who gave their lives in service to their communities.
Focusing on providing support to the families of first responders killed in the line of duty. They made the ultimate sacrifice in pursuit of a dream of a safe and thriving community, and their families also bear that sacrifice through their absence and the complete disruption of the family unit and family income.
Why We’re Different
Many charities focus on providing immediate relief—an important and noble goal. At 1 Dollar From Everyone, we take a long-term approach.
Instead of a quick fix, we invest in programs that deliver ongoing benefits year after year. We’re dedicated to transparency, efficiency, and making every dollar count.
