I Spark Change Investing Pitch

I Spark Change- founded 2020 by Rick Ornelas

Purpose- Empowering and connecting humanity to spread positive change and elevate social impact.

What problem are you trying to solve?

1. There are millions of individuals, organizations, and groups that are doing impactful, positive work all over the world that is unknown to others.

2. Current resources to collaborate, amplify, and share this work are fragmented and greatly limited.

3. Much of this work would significantly benefit humanity if it was more known and understood. (So many people want to help but they just don’t know how.)

Solution- A web and mobile platform where users can share their work with the world to amplify, collaborate and leverage the power of a global community.

Nurture and grow ideas to fruition through “passionate stakeholders” that would otherwise never be realized.

Eliminate barriers and inequalities through cross-cultural exchange to provide support, resources, and expertise. (Taking everything the internet is supposed to be and maximizing it’s potential)
