YOU can change the world. Lead SA is a personal call to every person to make a difference. We all have a responsibility to make the world a better place. It could be as simple as making a stranger smile or as big as fighting to further the rights entrenched in our Constitution. Each act makes a difference. This website tells the stories of people who are making our country a better place.

Marketplace of good.

Via Supernews.co.za

On 19 July, Forgood officially launched their website after an initial 18 month pilot phase led by founder Dr. Garth Japhet. Forgood was developed by coordinated efforts of Heartlines, a media and social mobilization NGO, and Young and Able, a black-owned training and development consultancy.

The basis of Forgood is to connect NGOs and other initiatives in need of services and resources with a database of volunteers. Essentially, it’s a social network for a purpose. Companies, people, and NGOs can create a profile for free and post what they have to offer in terms of time, skills or items of what they need or want. This forum is called a “marketplace of good.”
