George Lucas Giving Pledge

George Lucas is the legendary director of the Star War series, he has also made many other movies however most of his success and wealth comes from Star Wars, the creative genius of this director has been noted in all corners of the world and Star Wars has become one of the widely watched movies of all time. George Lucas is a creative force however his education didn't really help him and nearly took him away from film making. Lucas found it hard to fit in at high school and found most of the content not very engaging and boring. Once Lucas shot to fame and accumulated wealth he decided to adopt philanthropy and give to the children of the future through the George Lucas Education Foundation also known as Edutopia.


George Lucas Giving Pledge


The Giving Pledge is a non profit organization which was started by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates in 2008, the organization invites American billionaires and millionaires around the world to pledge to give away more than half of their wealth to help people in need all over the world. There are now more than 90 members and now that the organization invites billionaires and millionaires internationally the signatories are set to rise, the combined giving from the Giving Pledged has reached an astonishing $500 billion, undoubtedly this money will make a significant difference to the lives of other people.

George Lucas Approach to Philanthropy


George Lucas wants to instill change and creativity into the current curriculum, during his years at high school and college he felt confined and saw education as a conveyor belt to produce diploma's. Lucas wants a approach which taps into creativity and has made tremendous progress in helping make people aware of all the other methods of teaching out there from Homer, Aristotle and Plato where creativity is embraced and married with logic. The George Lucas Fund also helps schools and colleges with connectivity, the foundation has realized that connecting with technology that students use is the key to offering a more engaging and fulfilling learning experience. If you're considering asking for help through the George Lucas Education Foundation then you can go to the website and check all the scholarships available.

  2. My name is Yanel. I am a college student, currently unemployed, but with a strong will to accomplish my goals. Lately I've been having financial problems trying to pay for my books and school fees. On top of that I need to pay for new retainers. I do not have close relatives who can lend me money and my friends are going through tough times as well. Therefore, I am asking for just $675. This is the way I plan to use it: $225 for school fees, $350 for retainers, and $100 to buy new battery for my laptop. I would really apreciate if I can get help. Thank you. My email is yanel.3511@ymail.com

  12. Hello, I am honored to be e-mailing you and I would be even more honored if you replied to me or even helped out my request. Right now I am in school, medical and bill debt and I am willing to do anything for any amount of money you are willing to give me, I'm not the type of person to ask people for money but I am in a time of need.
    You and I know you could make many people rich and I want you to know if I were ever rich I would give most of my earnings to my community and really help out the world and make it a difference. I would immediately pay everything for my cousins cancer medication bills and all. Please help me out. Help me make the people around me wealthy. Thank you for your time if you have gotten this far. Thank you so much.

  13. I don't like to beg I usually work for all I have no matter how hard I struggle I don't give up but I've come to a point where I don't know what to do so i'll try to make this as short as possible. I've been threw a lot in my life. Won't describe the detales but a lot I had a massage tumor on my spine a yr ago that almost left me unable to walk. Luckily it was removed. Still have back pain because it was cut from my spine. I now have a broke nose and have to sleep setting propped up or I stop breathing. I need sur on it to fix the problem. I am a single mother of 3 that takes care of my kids as well as my mum that's a diabetic as well as other health problems. I have a very low immune system so it's not hard for me to get sick. I work 24 hrs a week but my check was garnished. I also pay my sisters bills as well as take care of her 2 kids. There dad won't pay child support at all. I've been abused and mistreated all my life and struggle hard and go threw a lot of pain just to pay bills take care of 5 kids and 2 other adults as well as myself. Times are hard on me and with my check being garnished I can't pay my bills. On top of all that my landlord wants to sell the home we are in and wants us out. All the places that help people like me are full and there are no shelters open all is full out here. I am divorced and can't leave the aria I'm in. Court ordered to stay but with the price of renting a home we will be homeless. I can't get a loan to buy a home because of the garnishment and over $80,000.00 in past dew hospital bills. I'm not asking for anyone to pay off what I owe. All I ask is if someone can help me to get a home for my family in the aria I'm in. I've tried everything I can think of and even the section 8 and housing hudd all them are out of funds and full. They won't even take apps anymore. I was turned down for a loan assistance and no one will work with me on renting a place. I would love to own my own home one day and be stable enough to finally maybe have my dream of becoming a movie star one day. But everything holds me back every time I try. If I could get enough to buy a stable home that my family don't have to move out of every 2 years I would be so greatfull. And if I ever do make it to fulfill my dream and become a star I hope to help someone stuck like I am. I just have to much on my and to many depending on me and I feel like I have failed them all. So please someone help me. PLEASE!

  27. Seasons tidings,

    I'd like to request the help of those who can afford to help. On Christmas Day this year, 15th December 2015, my little boy, Zak, was born. The mother and I have been homeless and have managed to secure a social housing apartment. I work full time as a chef, ad the mother is a full time parent. We have between us around 6300 GBP of debt. This may seem small, how would you feel if I the. Told you that our annual income after taxes is £10,200. We have to pay 740 per month towards our home to upkeep the utility bills and local taxes. The rest of our money goes on food, debts and myself getting to a from work

  28. To whom that is willing to help.... At this very moment I am outside in Phoenix AZ not knowing where to lay my head tonight once again because my x room mate kicked me out for not giving him a chance to be with me. I know ridiculous but the truth. I was on my way to California from Florida where I had a great set up to be able to start over. My car ended up breaking down here in Phoenix and I just so happen to know a friend of Five yrs that moved here and insisted on moving in until I got my vehicle fixed and come up with the money that I used to fix it.I agreed not knowing he had other intentions and he flipped when they did t go according to plan. I happen to fly out to visit family a week before Christmas and came back two days before Christmas to the locks changed and my belongings thrown in storage. I don't have any support nor family and because I'm so new to the area I dont even have friends so I've been sleeping in my car that still doesn't run in the parking lot of the apartment complex until they put a sticker on it and would have been towed if I didn't move it to storage. Now I've literally been roaming the streets at night only desperately wanting a ticket back home and enough money to be able to ship my belongings. I've been trying to sell my car to use that money to do so but no buyers. Please help my email is merasiacruz@gmail.com
