The ARK Charity Project History
The A.R.K. (Acts of Random Kindness) Charity Project was conceived in 2014 by Rabbi David Masinter from Johannesburg, South Africa. Under his organization “Change our World For Good”, over a million charity boxes have been distributed in South Africa and around the world, encouraging charity and acts of kindness. The project gained traction in the USA in several locations, most notably at the El Paso School District (Texas) and at Kansas University.
Unite The World was established in May 2020, and decided to further develop and promote the
ARK Charity Project as its first major project, due to its low cost, high impact, its platform for developing local and wider partnerships, and the opportunity for developing a sustainable, successful, replicable model for communities across the USA and beyond.
Unite The World has run the ARK Charity Project at institutions across Northeast PA with great success and feedback from participants. Over $10,000 has been donated to local nonprofits through the ARK Charity Project, and the project continues to attract more interest locally and internationally.
