About Us
mission
The mission of Share Good and all member communities is to democratize philanthropy.
Why? Because we – our communities, our families and our greater country – are better when we help each other through all forms of philanthropy.
How? We believe there is a spark when nonprofits voice their needs and the public rises to meet them. Neighbors choose how to support causes and alleviate crises based on their individual capacity, interests and passions.
What? This is accomplished primarily through our uniting tool of the Share Good platform.
Share Good champions a level, equitable playing field for nonprofits to voice their needs on an easily accessible web platform that enables users to get involved and make impact. We value innovation for nonprofit and community philanthropy, and we work hard to engage all facets of the community - from individuals and families, to students and employers through corporate social responsibility efforts.
