The FDU Game automatically funds multiple charitable not-for-profit (npo) organizations when the Avatar is used.
Each new Avatar Soule entering the Game chooses a charitable "Soule Family" from which their unique Avatar Soule derives. As a Avatar increases in Life Force Points from actions in FDU, a part is donated to a charity associated with their Soule Family. In this way, each Player Soule automatically helps to fund charities of interest to each unique Player.
A Soule Family is chosen by the Avatar from the following sectors: Education, Health Care, Economics, Environment, Children, Technology,
Food Security, Job Training, Interfaith Organizations, and Cultural.
In some instances a new Avatar Soule will be automatically placed into a Soule Family, this happens when a charitable partner acting as a approved Soule Family chooses to refer new users as a fund raising option for their organization. In some cases, charitable partners with pre-existing communities may enter the FDU Game in mass as a singular Soule Family, thereby ensuring more funding for their organization while also providing something of value to their existing base.
Adding to the charitable funds raised through the Soule Family donations, Foundational Commercial Players (OverSoules) in the Game are controlled by public companies that also support FDU associated charitable projects. The system navigation map on the bottom of the Home Page will allow you to visit some of the Commercial oriented partner websites.
The many public companies involved in the FDU charity fundraiser have created a type of booster club the support the FDU game, the FDUMA.
The FDUMA (Free Digital Universe Management Association) was created by Commercial Players to benefit their companies shareholders, while simultaneously supporting the charitable fund-raising activities and individual wealth developing purposes of the FDU. A win-win symbiotic relationship between commercial for-profit companies, consumers/Users, and charities exist within the domicile of the FDUMA.
Individual charities listed on Peace Portal agree to work together with FDUMA so that projects started in areas of need can be assured that all necessary industry sectors required to complete any given project can be accessed through this network. If a tree project is being implemented then there must also be water, power, waste recycling, etc..., one thing always leads to another because we live in a holistic eco-system. Public companies and NPOs receiving grants are currently planning two large scale global efforts that are at the core of supporting a sustainable economic system, these efforts are Prosperity Program, and Project Access Point.

Project Access Point connects partners on the ground (such as One Laptop per Child, Inveneo or Room to Read) with the FDU private global commerce platform for empowering the poor to improve their lives by accessing Information Age opportunities such as equal compensation for their labor using Life Force Points as a unencumbered virtual currency.
ACCESS: Project Access Point seeks to utilize the increasing availability of Information Age technologies with Internet based market opportunities designed specifically to meet the needs of people who are economically dis-enfranchised and whom are regularly excluded from mainstream consideration.
Providing Internet Access is achieved by supporting installation of clean energy (solar, wind, water) powered satellite dishes, donated computers, and additional technology by integrating our efforts with those established charities already providing Access, such as: ECHO, Trees for Life, Action Against Hunger, One Laptop per Child, and Room To Read among others.
With access to the global marketplace new vistas of educational and commercial potential become available, manifesting that potential is the work of Market Support, and Partners.
MARKET SUPPORT: Support, training, and services for accessing digital wealth in local goods and services will be need to supplement technology. Through a Co-op for example, only a few need to know how to use computers; craftsmen or farmers can drop off their goods to the Co-op for purchase by the local musicians that earned in Points as a effect of a digital creation. These imported earnings/Points can now be circulated in the poorer economies and used by those without computers as long as there is someone to manage the account/computer. The farmer can get the basket, the basket maker the food, and the "money" circulating came from a digital sale (no manufacturing or delivery cost) instead of from the poor communities local natural resources. Whole communities can prosper even if only a few know how to use the technology.
One of our more innovative support projects called SCALE, charters just such co-operatives at the local level, where need is greatest. The SCALE cooperative is an autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations. Working closely with the Prosperity Program, all Access Points are provided a step-by-step plan for implementing a local private community Co-operative, inclusive:
1. A private back-office banking application for accounting and aggregating of individual community Member funds via the cooperatives administrators;
2. A support staff made up of various Peace Partners which help Co-ops with increasing their wealth by doing such things as distributing their digital content, helping them in creating digital content themselves, and other on-line support as appropriate;
3. Distribution networks for the relay, delivery, and tracking of physical goods and services moving into and out of the Access Points.
4. Access to conversion of the Life Force Points Points of the digital platform into the Co-op Trustees public currency of choice.
5. Help in establishing private regional trading platforms between Access Point Co-ops, with emphasis on attaining regional self-sustainability.
PARTNERS: No one, two, or even ten organizations can challenge our planetary problems alone, a coordinated effort is required by all groups working everywhere, we all need a rallying point; therefore FDU Charitable support strives to connect complimentary projects with active organizations globally via technology donations through its Peace Partners communities.
