Inside our minds relies a common sense that thinking on doing something good, empathizing with causes, and adding a strong willingness to help would be enough to vanish the obstacles, put me through some great organizations, or a committed group of activists and volunteers. This should be easy\u2026 but it is not. And after a few tries, and maybe some actual volunteering, my strong willingness can become a weak uncertainty with an evident postponement.<\/p><p>Doing GOOD require an awareness learning action and tools to improve your interaction.<\/p><p>That doesn\u2019t appear on a Google search, by typing \u201cvolunteering\u201d or \u201ccommunity service\u201d or \u201chow to get in touch with a social organization\u201d, \u201chow to participate in social activism and create an impact\u201d. It is tough to admit that even GOOD things do not work in perfect harmony, especially in the Internet. And this can easily frustrate a benevolent human being that has all the energy and good vibes to send to the universe.<\/p><p>Doing GOOD need a trusted community where you identify yourself as part of the learning process and also part of the active doers. Get you connected to good causes and use your talents in a way you are able to chat with friends about that, boost your social interaction and feel you are part of a broaden community. \u00a0Experiencing the true feeling of <strong>belonging<\/strong>, not acquired thru any membership or credential, instead by a sense of mattering (I matter) to a specific cause or community.<\/p><p>At Social Impact Movement we want you to do GOOD, make your IMPACT, and participate in social CHANGE. To help you go through this journey faster, get rid of some obstacles and discover your pathway, here we are!<\/p><p>This is YOUR channel to get you connected to UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs);<\/p><p>to become acquainted with great resources available in our community;<\/p><p>to find out good people &amp; good organizations and their initiatives for the SDGs;<\/p><p>to connect to stories that resonate to your life;<\/p><p>to get inspired and inspire others with your story.<\/p><p>That said, let us present HOW we came to this point.

More than 50 Social Organizations decided to support our project, as well as hundreds of users signed up participating in this MVP (minimum viable product).<\/p><p>After a year of testing, we learned the greatest need stands far beyond of just offering a volunteering platform, which we recognize as an important tool to link you to the social sector.
