Global Citizen is headquartered in New York, with offices in Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom. The organization was co-founded by Hugh Evans, Simon Moss, Wei Soo in 2008.
Since 2012, millions of Global Citizens around the world have taken over six million actions to solve the world's biggest challenges. That's six million emails, tweets, petition signatures and phone calls targeting world leaders to end extreme poverty by 2030.
To date, the actions by our global community along with our high level advocacy efforts and with our partners, have resulted in 130 commitments and policy announcements from leaders, including financial aid valued at over $25.6 billion that is set to affect the lives of 656 million people.
Through our mix of content and events, grassroots organizing and extensive reach through our digital channels, we are building the world's largest movement for social action. We organize massive global campaigns to amplify the actions of Global Citizens from around the world.
