Why Become an Agent of Upliftment?

Abuse of power, war, unfair trading practices, corruption, and mismanagement are significantly contributing to climate disasters, forced migration, poverty, and claiming the lives of innocent people globally. We are witnessing the beginning of unprecedented challenges, and we all need to rethink our actions. Each of us has the power to be part of the solution to these growing challenges.

As an Agent of Upliftment you can advocate for the people in need that you care about and support their upliftment process. You will scout, register, and manage your 'Upliftment Support Portfolio' through your SGTJ Accounts and the co-managed My SGTJ Account of each individual in your portfolio, who is unable to manage his/her SGTJ Accounts personally.
