If you live in Norway, you can consider becoming a support member in the two organizations I run. It costs NOK 50 a year. The more members we have, the more influence we have and the more funding we get as well. Right now we have around 500 members of World Saving Hustle (WSH) and 300 members of Altruism for Youth (AY).

If you want to become a volunteer for World Saving Hustle or Altruism for Youth, send me an email and I'll forward it to our team. It might take some time before you'll get an answer as we're currently run by volunteers, but you'll get an answer eventually!

Do you have any feedback, questions, suggestions for either topics/guests, let me know in the comment section.
