2020 was an epic year!

At StartSomeGood we were sprinting all the way to the finish line to support the changemakers in our community but since the new year we have taken a moment to review what happened.

Last year we ran two accelerators — Future Makers with Optus and Seafood for Good with Austral Fisheries — and 11 capacity-building programs including with the United Nations Development Program, City of Parramatta and Asian Charity Services.

We had 70 students go through our Good Hustle social enterprise design course and we reached $12M USD raised on our crowdfunding platform.

168 people have joined our community for early-stage social entrepreneurs, the Starting Good Network, and more than 6,000 registered for our annual #StartingGood Virtual Summit.

The number that shocked us most: between our courses, events and accelerators we hosted 120 live webinars and learning conversations last year. No wonder we felt busy!

Thanks to all our partners, funders, supporters, collaborators, speakers and mentors who made this all possible.

Even bigger thanks to the community leaders, social entrepreneurs and changemakers who trusted us to support you on your journey and for all your hard work to support your communities and build a better future.
