Helping Our Community Nonprofits Be Seen, Heard, and Supported.
For Our Common Good shines a light on the people, stories and organizations making a difference in our communities.
"For Our Common Good is an organization that supports other Non-profit Organizations! They do great work, and we are so thankful for their support."
"This is what makes For Our Common Good so helpful: bringing attention to the smaller nonprofits - those that do not have long-term benefactors they can rely on."

With Gratitude
Our heartfelt gratitude to our Volunteer Advisor, Frederick Johnson, who hiked San Gorgonio Mountain—the tallest peak in Southern California—during an 18-mile, all-day hike to raise funds for For Our Common Good.
We are equally grateful to the generous sponsors of his hike—Fillaree, Durham, NC; Omega Sports, Raleigh, NC; and Great Outdoor Provision Company, Raleigh, NC—and to the donors whose generosity helped make these grants possible.
Thank you.
