In modern life we all strive to do good, but often struggle to feel like we're making a proper contribution to our communities. Here at Do Gooder we're committed to helping to promote change for the better, wether that is driven by large nonprofits or a single activist. We provide tools and services to enable change through connecting people with shared ideas and values, and driving forward common goals to help local communities. Over the years we've worked on thousands of campaigns, and here are a few tips we've discovered that can help you do good.
1. Find an issue close to you heart
The only way you'll be able to do good is to find an issue you care about. We have hundreds of active campaigns on our site covering a range of topics our members feel passionate about, so dive in and find one you think will be helpful. Alternatively, if you have an issue that affects your community then speak to us about ways we can provide the help you need to drive change.
2. Create a network
Once you've identified an issue, it's time to create a network. Utilise social media and local outlets to find other passionate people in your community willing to contribute. It doesn't have to be a monetary contribution, sometimes all it takes is a signature to help make the world a better place. We've been building our action network for years, connecting people and communities to help promote change.
3. Use your network
Now you've built a network, it's time to use them to do good. Create an action plan for tackling your issues and encourage your network contact your local representative to help enact the change you're looking for. Small contributions, such as an email or a phone call, can go a long way to a better, happier community.
