CSI budgets are shrinking.
The targets are not.
You are being asked to do more with less. Deliver the Mandela Day activation, hit the SED targets, prove employee engagement to the board and do it all with a smaller budget and a smaller team than last year.
Most companies run a once-off event, take the photos and watch the momentum die post the event. The spreadsheet tracking volunteer hours lives on one person's laptop.
Before
Goodwill running
on email
and Excel.
- One event, then the momentum disappears.
- Volunteer hours trapped in one person's spreadsheet.
- Missing evidence when B-BBEE verification arrives.
- Employees miss the chance to take part.
After
Year-round engagement.
Verified impact.
- Year-round activations keep employees engaged.
- Every volunteer hour tracked in one place.
- SED evidence ready for B-BBEE verification.
- More employees reached with a smaller team.
The B-BBEE verification comes around and half the evidence is missing. And, the employees who genuinely wanted to give back never heard about the opportunity in the first place.
None of this is a people problem. It is an infrastructure problem. You cannot scale goodwill on email threads and Excel.
One platform.
Your whole giving programme.
forgood puts your entire employee volunteering programme in one place. Your people browse hundreds of vetted opportunities, sign up in a few clicks, log their hours and get recognised for it. You get real-time dashboards, automated reporting and volunteer time calculated as SED spend, ready for your B-BBEE verification.
We vett every Cause on the platform, so your compliance risk is handled before your first employee logs in.
Launch fast. Your branded platform can be live in days and weeks, not quarters.
Employees choose. Structured events for teams, plus skills-based and personal volunteering for individuals. Participation stays high long after the launch buzz fades.
Reporting done. Volunteer hours, goods donations, payroll giving and matched giving, all measured and converted into board-ready and B-BBEE-ready reports.
Live in three steps.
Process step 1 active
We build it.
Your branded platform, loaded with your CSI projects, flagship campaigns and hundreds of opportunities to give, matched to your strategy.
Your people run with it.
Employees sign up, choose Causes they actually care about, volunteer, donate and log hours from their phone. WhatsApp integration means it works for everyone, not just head office.
You report on it.
Participation, hours, salary value of time given, goods and money donated—exported and formatted for your board, your CSI committee and your B-BBEE reporting.

Questions we get on every call
How long does it take to launch?
A few weeks from signature, depending on how much customisation you want. We handle the build, the Cause matching and the launch campaign framework. Your team’s lift is decisions, not admin.
We already run Mandela Day. Why do we need a platform?
Mandela Day is one day. Your SED targets, engagement scores and retention challenges are year-round. The platform turns your one big day into 12 months of measurable activity, and it makes next year’s Mandela Day easier too.
Can it handle a workforce that is not desk-based?
Yes. WhatsApp integration and mobile-first design mean branch, retail, field and factory staff participate at the same rates as head office. This is one of the main reasons clients switch to us.
What does it cost?
Licence tiers scale with your headcount and how much you want us to run for you, from platform-only through to fully managed programmes with on-site event facilitation. Book the demo and we will give you a straight number for your size on the call—no proposal theatre.
Does volunteer time really count as SED spend?
Time spent on qualifying Causes can be calculated at salary value and reported as SED contribution. The platform does this calculation automatically and packages the evidence your verification agency needs.
Build an employee volunteering programme your people will use.
Bring your headcount and your current participation rate to a 20-minute call. We will show you the live platform and give you an honest view of what your programme could report on in 12 months.
