NEW! Now accepting donations of stock

Activate Good is excited to announce an exciting new giving opportunity – our capability to accept stock donations!

"It’s the thought that counts" may be a nice sentiment but thoughts don’t keep the lights on. Even a small monthly donation matters, and I love supporting an organization focused on encouraging others to make a positive difference in my city. We all need a reminder that there is still good in the world.”

I can't say enough good things about Activate Good. The work they do is crucial, and they are an amazing part of the community! I give every month because the value they bring to their partners is necessary to get our work done. We have found so many of our awesome volunteers out of Activate Good's help and can't thank them enough! Our community is beyond lucky to have them here supporting all of our volunteer needs.

I got involved with Activate Good after serving with my wife, Champa, as Peace Corps Volunteers overseas. I’m impressed by its leadership and effectiveness in promoting volunteerism here in the Triangle.

I give monthly because I strongly believe in Activate Good’s people-powered projects for good. I know my donation helps AG have continual funding to rely on in fulfilling this mission. My donation also helps me feel like my resources are doing good in the Triangle even when my schedule is busy and I can’t volunteer my time.

Getting to know Activate Good through friends at SAS inspired me to join their monthly giving program. I've never seen an organization that has been able to bring together so many resources to serve the community in such a variety of ways. Whether you want to volunteer, coordinate a volunteer event for your company or be part of something bigger, Activate Good is the platform you should support right now. Literally, there's something for everyone -- everyone can serve. In the words of Martin Luther King, Jr.: 'Everybody Can Be Great, Because Anybody Can Serve’

I was actually fortunate enough to be able to get an appointment at the vaccine clinic on March 20th/April 17th, and wanted to contribute as a thank you for helping put on that clinic. I'm very appreciative of being able to get my first dose of the vaccine and am so glad I found out about the clinic.
