A Letter From Our Executive Director
Dear Friends,
As the Executive Director of a global nonprofit, people often ask me what they can do to help. My response is always, “Just do something.” If every single person carried out one small act—whether that’s giving a day of your time to volunteer, spreading awareness for issues that matter, or giving just $10 to a cause you care about—the world would be a much better place. If everyone does something, no one has to do everything.
That’s what I love about the GreaterGood community. Your dedication to help, your passion for a variety of causes, your daily actions, showcase you understand that when our whole community comes together, and everyone takes action, we can accomplish big things. This year as we celebrate 10 Years of Giving Where It Matters, I couldn’t be more humbled by and proud of the impact we’ve had, together.
YOU are the reason we’ve been here for 10 years – thank you.
We celebrate our 10th birthday on September 19th, and we invite you to join us in celebrating. Below, you will find some of the accomplishments and milestones that have been reached together over the past decade. We hope you will share this page with your friends and family on our birthday. We also encourage you to #Give10 to the cause you care most about and share with your community why you give.
We work hard to provide impactful ways to Give Where It Matters® to protect people, pets, and the planet. When you #Give10 you make a statement to the world that you are a part of a community that cares, acts, and changes the world together.
With gratitude,
Liz Baker
Executive Director, GreaterGood.org
