At Goodera,
we are on a mission to make social impact accessible to every team on the planet.

A note from our founder

What does engineering have to do with volunteering? I’ve spent a decade answering that question. When people volunteer, walls come down, communities are strengthened, and a chain reaction of positive impact begins. It’s not linear impact, it’s exponential. As an engineer, I wanted to understand how this experience could be measured and scaled.

For too long, volunteering has been limited and cumbersome, overly-dependent on the motivation of a passionate few, and too often a burden for nonprofits with limited resources to coordinate. Everything else in our modern life was so simple and frictionless—why not this?

I founded Goodera to harness the power of human goodness and propel employee volunteering into the 21st century, using innovation to expand reach, and data to measure the outcomes. The backbone of our unmatched global infrastructure is technology, allowing us to have a worldwide presence while keeping a hyperlocal focus. By doing so, we’ve enabled literally millions more people to volunteer by making it accessible, engaging, and impactful.

I believe the world is hungry for connection and purpose. People want to do good, but often don't know where to begin. Volunteering is an important way to connect with others while creating impact for communities, and with Goodera, we’re making it a way of life.
