Lil' MDGs is the collaborative effort of three youths scattered in different parts of the USA . Dylan, the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Lil' MDGs, is a young visionary with a passion for global issues. Since 2004, he has been directing his energy to alleviate the suffering of humanity in all parts of the world. He has been working on issues such as combating HIV/AIDS, improving access to education, eradicating hunger and poverty, promoting tolerance, advancing human rights, promoting gender equality, reducing child mortality, encouraging diversity, supporting a just economic system, and ensuring environment sustainability-issues that need to be addressed if we are to meet the 2015 MDGs.

Over the next several months, Dylan found himself working with children from several parts of the world to benefit various causes. Please visit the projects page to read about the various service activities that Lil' MDGs has collaborated on. During the course of his activities, Dylan realized that many children were unaware of the MDGs. He realized that these children were not only eager to learn more about the issues bothering mankind and the MDGs, but they also wanted to get involved. Dylan realized that his focus should be on mobilizing children around the world to get involved; he realized that his voice alone can only do so much, but if he could inspire other children to get involved the voices of several billion children could make a bigger change. He formed Lil' MDGs to help achieve his goals.

With this in mind, he collaborated with Courtney and Pooja, who live in different states in the USA but share the same passion for global issues, and founded Lil' MDGs. Courtney and Pooja have worked on several projects that help raise awareness on various issues among children and young adults. As young people, they had to overcome skepticism; while it was extremely difficult, these three entrepreneurs are successful examples of young people getting heard.

Lil' MDGs is excited about this new and remarkable partnership and is happy to announce that all contributions and donations to Lil' MDGs will be tax-deductible and managed by Jayme's Fund for Social Justice.

That is the story behind Lil' MDGs. Lil' MDGs is growing rapidly and is continuing to make a contribution towards fighting poverty.
