Good to know, and thanks for pledging! Nitpick, you say in your bio that, âAt least for a moment in time, I was GWWCâs 10,000th active pledgerâ. However, GWWC estimates only 59.4 % of 10 % Pledgers record a donation in the 1st year of their pledge. So I think GWWC has significantly less than 10 k people fulfilling their pledge excluding future donations. There is more discussion on this here.
I think GWWC uses the term âactive pledgerâ to refer to the pledgers that are still pledgers. I am #10294, which means I was the 10294th person to sign the pledge, but out of those 10294 people, 294 of them either cancelled their pledges or there were double-counts etc. So at the time when I pledged, there were 9999 existing others who were âactiveâ i.e. had not cancelled their pledge. That doesnât mean the on-paper âactiveâ pledgers actually adhere to their pledges, and I donât know if GWWC has a different term for that.

You donât know me, but I wasnât just one of the first 10,000. I was the 10,000th.

Thanks for clarifying! I have replaced âactive pledgersâ in my comment with âpeople fulfilling their pledge excluding future donationsâ.
