What Is It?
We put the cherry in charity. Doing good has never felt sweeter. Social Friday is a new cool way to spend your Friday afternoons – with your team, for the community. Come on, try something fresh! It’s the least productive time of the workweek anyway.
Why Do It?
There are at least nine very good reasons why Social Friday will have a positive effect on your employees, your local community and on your identity as an entrepreneur. Don’t worry if you are still a student, we will give you an extra three.
Why Do It with Us?
Social Friday will ensure, that you get the most out of your commitment. It’s also in our own interest. We will help you to help us to create a platform for social awareness, independent from any religious or political group and without any member fee.
We know about the benefits of doing social good. We know about the unproductive hours on Friday afternoons. Let’s use these facts for a better society and a healthier economy. Let’s reinvent Fridays together! – Fikret Zendeli, Founder
Why Friday?
Fact: Friday is the least productive day of the week.*
One day, we thought:
What if we used those unproductive Friday hours to do something good for the community and team spirit? A few months later, the first Social Friday was born.
Upcoming Dates:
⚠️ Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all 2020 activities are postponed. We look forward to continuing our efforts in 2021. Stay tuned until then.
Social Friday happens four times a year—once each quarter. We choose set dates on which 100s of companies and organizations unite and host initiatives in their neighborhoods.
Be Rewarded
Helping others is great, isn’t it? But don’t just do it for the local community. Do it for your team spirit and do it for your very own personal experience.

Be Part of Something Bigger
It’s an interesting model. Hopefully many other organizations and enterprises will adopt this.

So, how will YOU give this #givingtuesday? / @givingtuesday
Social Friday was built on the premise of love for our neighbors and our planet. We’ve worked and will continue to work to make giving - not a once per year matter - but part of the everyday lifestyle.
*Social Friday ready to help you give back more than once a year*
Today is Cyber Monday; just another day where our society indulges in consumerism and taking in - after just having given thanks this Friday - over #Thanksgiving dinner.
Neuroscience @voxdotcom seems to be revealing a link between practicing #gratitude and #charitable giving. We hope you'll be using this neural connection to give back to the community today and tomorrow during #givingtuesday2020.
Moreover, we at Social Friday have it as our mission to cultivate thanksgiving and giving back more than once a year. So if you want to give beyond Thanksgiving, and Giving Tuesday, join Social Friday, a ready platform to help you give back to the community.
For a healthier economy, a better world -- use the power of Social Friday.
