Marketers have designated January 15th as the saddest day of the year, known as Blue Monday. It was invented to convince you to make purchases that are supposed to lift your spirits. But is buying new things, especially after the holiday season’s excess, truly a way to feel better?
If shopping usually brightens your day, we have an address that will genuinely make a significant impact – and not just for a moment, but potentially for a lifetime. By visiting GoodWorks 24/7, you can give yourself and someone else a beautiful day, and for some, even a beautiful life. In our good deeds marketplace you can add kindness to your cart just like any other item. People in need will receive the help you choose, and you – the assurance that you’ve done something wonderful today.
We won’t tell you to “Stop having coffee on the go!” like many others. The cost of the wonderful gestures in our marketplace is so low that you can afford both the coffee and the act of kindness. 🙂
Thanks to you, an expectant mother in the Democratic Republic of the Congo can go for a medical consultation. The cost? Only €2! You might not even notice this expense, but we guarantee – this gesture will make your day truly good!
