Education is a powerful tool that can change lives, and our efforts in Sierra Leone highlight this transformative potential. By providing the working children of Freetown with uniforms and sportswear we are supporting their access to education, offering them a chance to escape hazardous work environments and unlock opportunities that can lead to a brighter future. Our recent efforts in Sierra Leone mark the delivery of aid to our 30th country globally and our 5th in Africa. This achievement demonstrates our commitment to supporting communities worldwide.

When someone is in the depths of despair and contemplating ending their own life, having a place where they feel safe and supported is essential.  That's why we support organisations like Minds At War, and it's why we teamed up with our partners at Silent Night to provide them with custom-made mattresses for their Big Yellow Battle Bus which provides crucial support to armed forces veterans and their families across Herts, Beds and Bucks.

Sadly, the lush green countryside of Moldova cannot mask the deep-rooted issues of poverty and neglect. Just a three hour flight from the UK, it's hard to take in the stark contrast of beauty and deprivation that we witnessed on our recent visit to the country. Travelling with our partners Uniqlo to meet our new charity partner Hope4, it was a tale of two halves; one of sadness as we saw firsthand the dire circumstances faced by the communities we visited, and one of happiness as we were able to distribute essentials to children, families and the elderly in the orphanages, hostels and centres we travelled to.

Our commitment is to bring together a collective effort under the banner of recycling, repurposing, and reducing waste—for good!

Goods For Good is delighted to announce that, for the second consecutive year, we are the recipients of support from Aviva’s Community Fund. This partnership brings an incredible opportunity to amplify the impact of our Twelve Gifts of Kindness Winter Appeal throughout the month of December.

As the international community gathers for COP28 we're calling for a renewed focus on sustainable humanitarian practices. We want to transform the narrative beyond COP28 and create a legacy that benefits both people and the planet. 

Imagine, every time you shop for groceries, clothes, or gifts, a portion of your spending goes toward providing vital aid to those in need. Make this Black Friday green - make your purchases count in a meaningful way and turn the act of shopping into a force for good.

In a remarkable collaboration Goods For Good and UK wealth management company St James's Place are making strides to empower individuals on their journey back to work. Having generously initiated a workwear donation drive, St James's Place is inviting colleagues to a three-day event which aims to provide those in need with the professional attire they require to make a positive impression during interviews and, ultimately, secure employment.

At Goods For Good, we stand for the power of sports to bring communities together and have a lasting impact.  Through our Sport For Good initiative, a significant step has been taken towards empowering the youth of Gagauzia, with the launch of the region's first soccer school.  We are proud to support our charity partner Hope4's in this life-changing project in Moldova.

On Tuesday 5th September our CEO and Founder, Rosalind Bluestone MBE, and Head of Fundraising and Partnerships, Andrew Anastasiou, had the honour of attending an event at the House of Comms that truly embodied the spirit of compassion and support. Guests of Watford MP Dean Russell, the evening was nothing short of inspiring.
