Welcome to TTISOD

a Think-Tank In Service Of Do-gooding

Our mission is to change the world, but we haven’t figured out how to do it just yet. In the meantime, we hope you will consider donating to organizations that we care about deeply. Check them out in our profiles below, and give extra love to our picks of the week!
