Wenche Foss Honor Award

Wenche Foss Honor Award

Jonas Borchgrevink, the founder of MyGoodAct, has received the “Wenche Foss Honor Award” for his work with MyGoodAct.

“I am very grateful for this award which will help MyGoodAct alot. It is really unbelievable, it never passed my mind that MyGoodAct and I could even be a candidate for this award. It makes me more motivated to continue my work with MyGoodAct and it certainly will be positive for further development of our organization. I have had some tough periods myself and many problems to solve regarding MyGoodAct, but now the puzzle is beginning to fall in place. Thank you alot!!”

We are now looking for sponsors regarding both funds and traffic to our site. If you want to sponsor us with money or if you have a website/news-site that can give us some marketing, please send an email to jonas@mygoodact.org. To donate money to MyGoodAct you can do it here.
