• What’s forgood all about?

    Take a home-grown social network. Add purpose, fun
    and rewards. See South Africa change. That’s forgood.


    The forgood community is made up of friends, groups
    and activities. Members create groups and activities that
    other friends on forgood can join.


    Connect with others near you or those who share your
    cause. Offer whatever you can: time, money, skills or
    resources. Get your good on and earn recognition and
    good points.


    Best of all – it’s free!

  • The good comes to you

    Are you already involved in a social outreach project
    or just love helping others? Create a profile for yourself, then
    create your group and get others to join your cause.
    Everyone who shares your cause and lives within 50km
    of your group will be invited to join you.


    Would you really love to do something worthwhile but
    don’t know where to start looking? Once you sign up,
    groups and activities will come looking for you based on
    where you live and what you’re passionate about.
