About Good Things

Good Things helps generous people move from scattered donations to a thoughtful giving practice. We research organizations and opportunities, then shape recommendations around each member’s causes, community, budget, and preferences.

Our mission is to make personal philanthropy useful and approachable—not only for millionaires with private advisors, but for ordinary people who want their generosity to matter. By making good work easier to discover, we can also direct attention toward effective local and smaller organizations that may not have large marketing budgets.
