Across the globe, we are united in our dedication to increasing kindness
WHO WE ARE
Our Story: Two MBAs, with over 30 years of combined business experience, choosing to step away from successful careers to pursue greater purpose by developing a nonprofit called Compass for Kindness. Britt is a CFP® and CAP® with 15+ years of experience in wealth management. Matt was a Management Consultant at a major global firm, helping his clients achieve greater efficiencies across various industries. Together, they founded Compass for Wealth, an independent financial planning, education, and coaching practice. We currently live on a 41’ sailboat discovering opportunities throughout Mexico, Central America, and beyond. We are a married couple, committed to each other and committed to this purpose.
OUR APPROACH
We DISCOVER, GUIDE, and EMPOWER kindness in communities where human needs are unmet.
— Our Mission
Our mission is to be a “compass for kindness.” To discover communities where basic human needs are unmet and to guide donors to these opportunities. To direct funds in a manner that empowers local efforts and leaders that are seeking to improve these communities.
— Our Vision
We envision a healthy, productive, and vibrant world where basic human needs are met and talented and inspired local leaders are empowered to cultivate their communities. Core to this is a need to debunk the illusion of a divided world and to inspire action. As we increase our awareness, we realize that we are all intricately connected to the same story, that people are not so different, that we all have basic human needs. We believe in the inherent goodness of people and that we share a social and moral responsibility to take care of one another and the planet we inhabit.
WHAT WE CARE About!
The cruising community has more heart than just about any community we have ever seen, but they often do not know how to get involved at a local level.
We see education including language & financial literacy as a great catalyst for empowerment in peoples’ lives and believe in equal access to knowledge for all.
Clean water is an afterthought to so many of us, but you would be surprised how many communities continue to struggle.
We believe in equal access for basic and urgent healthcare services for all.
A child’s environment is fundamental to the person they become. We support safe environments for children to be themselves and grow.
We cannot help everyone, but we seek opportunities to help those we can. Just a $200 scholarship can change the course of a young adult’s life.
