Greater Good Science Center
This project has ended, but you can still support amazing Berkeley initiatives by visiting give.berkeley.edu. Your continued support of our students, faculty and staff will ensure that Berkeley remains the #1 public university. Go Bears!
The Greater Good Science Center is an independently funded non-profit based at UC Berkeley that studies and shares the "science of a meaningful life." We feature cutting-edge research and everyday tips to promote happiness, emotional health, connection with others, and stress reduction. With your support we hope to launch a new web-based tool called Greater Good in Action that can enhance the life of everyone who uses it (including you!). Choose the positive emotion you'd like to cultivate -- joy, awe, empathy, forgiveness -- and receive scientifically validated, step-by-step instructions. Our online audience of over 250,000 people worldwide ensures that the impact of GGIA will be huge. But we receive all our funding from donors and friends like you, and we're $12,000 away from being able to finish the project. So we ask you to please make a gift so this first-of-its-kind resource can be a reality. Thank you!
