The Global Mission of AGI is to send authentic, life-giving gifts to a needy world – gifts that build a partnership with people in crisis and that protect and preserve the earth’s endangered environment – to nourish and sustain a more equitable and peaceful global community. AGI is a nonprofit, interfaith agency. AGI provides global education for people of all ages and raises funds each year in its Alternative Gifts Markets, and from individual donors, to respond to those needs. Designated grants then are sent to the established international projects of several reputable nonprofit agencies for relief and development.
