***UPDATE 1/1/23***

Thanks so much to everyone who pitched in to maximize our match! Your generosity is so appreciated! Happy New Year!


At a time of intense anxiety and conflict, we continue to provide millions of people with inspiration and practical resources for compassion and well-being, including our Greater Good online magazine and Science of Happiness podcast and course.

Are we having an impact? 

99% of our audience reports that GGSC resources have boosted their personal happiness and well-being

98% say our work has strengthened their “motivation or ability to help others.”

Just as gratifying are the stories and feedback that we hear from members of our community. 

Here’s what two of them shared recently:

“You are doing brilliant work and having a huge impact. This practical, science-based positivity is serving an urgent need in society. The articles you write that reference research and make it accessible are worth their weight in gold; you are spreading this work into many sectors and among people who would otherwise not have access to it. Thank you so, so much.”

“I really appreciate everything you do for us teachers who work with the K-12 population, who desperately need tools and resources to handle the trials and tribulations of societal pressures of being a student in the world of today. Never before, with Covid and political and societal problems, has your work been so needed!! Thank you, thank you!!”

Thank YOU for making our work possible! If you’re able to pitch in this holiday season, we would appreciate your tax-deductible donation of any amount. 

Check out our year-end membership gifts:

Gifts of $250 receive a FREE Greater Good Toolkit

Gifts of $500 receive a FREE signed copy of Dacher Keltner's new book, Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life

Thanks again, and we wish you happiness and well-being in 2023!
