Our Mission
Project 32 empowers young people to grow into generous, engaged citizens by pairing the enthusiasm of the sports card community with verified acts of kindness.
What we do
Collectors pledge cards. Youth earn them by completing real, documented acts of kindness in their schools, homes, and communities. Every card has a purpose; every act of kindness earns recognition.
501(c)(3) structure
Project 32 is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) public charity. Card and financial contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. We publish annual impact reports and operate with a volunteer board.
Youth safety
Participants under 18 require parent or guardian confirmation before claiming any card. Higher-value cards (Tier 3+) require additional verification, including a parent signature, multiple photos, and — at Tier 5 — a third-party witness such as a teacher, coach, or shelter manager.
Who can participate
Kids, parents, teachers, scout leaders, and coaches are welcome on the youth side. The collector side is open to anyone with cards or financial support to give. Shipping addresses are never exposed publicly — they're revealed only after a pledge is made.
The rules in plain English
- Cards are pledged in writing and shipped to HQ before they're listed as available to earn.
- Every act of kindness is reviewed by an admin before a card ships.
- Verification scales with card value — entry-level cards need a photo; crown-jewel cards need a witness.
- No personal addresses are shown publicly. Shipping details are only revealed inside an authenticated pledge dashboard.
