About Us

Our Mission

GiveInternet is a nonprofit funding platform on a mission to help disadvantaged high school students realize their full potential by giving them Internet access.

We believe that today it is virtually impossible to succeed without Internet access. By providing connectivity, we empower people to improve the quality of their lives and their communities and drive socio-economic growth.

Team

George Jibladze

CEO

"For years, our environments constrained our chances. With the Internet, our physical location no longer has to be an obstacle. The Internet creates a space for growth, inquiry and passion."

Tornike Gelashvili

CTO

"In the 90s I discovered the Internet and it changed my life forever. 25 years have passed and billions are still offline. I want to give them the same chance to find their potential."

Mari Gelashvili

Operations

"I think the Internet is our biggest resource for inquiry, education, establishing relationships; and every second I spend on working to expand Internet access is worthwhile. "

Shalva Bukia

"We all have the responsibility to help others, to change the world for the better, and if we want to bring the most impact with minimum resources, GiveInternet.org is the way to go."

Roussoudane Djakeli

Fundraising

"Nothing boosts our life chances like having Internet access. I can’t think of a more impactful, cost-efficient or, frankly, a cooler project to work on."

Razmik Badalyan

Student education

"I was lucky enough to have a computer from an early age. I earned my first paycheck with it. And in retrospect, I appreciate how much opportunities it has given me."
