Real, messy hope delivered to your inbox daily, from Good Good Good.
🎁 A gift that actually *will* make their life better
We can do better on Black Friday: shopping thoughtfully and intentionally for things that don’t fill the world (and eventually, landfills) with more crap.
This year, give your loved one something that will actually make their life better. Good news is scientifically proven to do just that.
Every month, we make The Goodnewspaper, the print newspaper filled with good news.
🏳️🌈 A court ruled that same-sex marriages must be respected throughout the entire European Union, rebuking Poland for refusing to recognise a marriage between two of its citizens that took place in Germany.
👏 In a vote coinciding with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, Italy officially recognized femicide as a crime and will punish it with life in prison.
Giant holiday ‘giving machines’ are in over 100 cities around the world — they’ve already raised $50 million
Even in times of uncertainty, the holidays are a season of giving. And Light the World Giving Machines, giant vending machine-style kiosks found in 126 cities across 21 countries and on six continents, are making giving back easy.
Users can pick a specific dollar amount or item to contribute to a specific charity, like spending $35 to give a solar lamp to a refugee family.
Since the project’s inception, nearly $50 million has been donated by people across the globe. In 2024 alone, 2 million meals were donated to feed people in need, 125,000 refugees received emergency food boxes, and much more.
Why is this good news? While most of us make our holiday wish lists this year, there are people around the world who need their basic needs met. These giving kiosks make donating easy and engaging, helping people make giving back part of their holiday, too.
Shop with a purpose this holiday season: Choose gifts that do good
For shoppers who care about overconsumption, the planet, and people, this time of year can be overwhelming. But we have good news: It’s possible to gift with your values in mind.
