Daily Challenge (www.dailychallenge.org)
Seeking to build the largest network of “Do Gooders,” Daily Challenge encourages its members to positively impact the world by performing good deeds on a daily basis. Launched in November 2008, the site provides a forum for members to connect with other socially conscious members around the world, participate in hundreds of random acts of kindness and even propose their own. Celebrity challengers also suggest acts, such as taking a vow of non-violence as per Dr. Chopra, or Dr. Vitale’s request to do something for a homeless person. Nurturing personal development while influencing positivism, friendship and community, Daily Challenge hopes the pay-it-forward attitude will have a ripple effect that will mobilize millions to do good deeds every day.
“Social media is a powerful tool on its own. Joined by the support of celebrities, we’re seeing people are even more encouraged to become agents of positive change,” states Co-founder and President of Daily Challenge, Darius Bashar. “An inspiration to our goal is how successful President Obama’s campaign was through social networking and its huge celebrity backing for the Presidential Pledge. I am certain that DailyChallenge.org will further leverage the benevolence of thousands with the same means to make this world a better place.” To date, Daily Challenge has over 2,000 good deeds completed in over 31 countries world wide in less than 3 months.
