Our Vision

A fair world. (Simple, but that’s how we see the future)

Our Mission

Maximise social initiatives impact by making social collaboration a habit in people’s lives.

About 1 Hour a Day

1hour1day.com is a Social Platform that enables people to learn by helping on social initiatives. We want to reduce the barriers present on "Social impact work" and encourage more people to use their strengths to serve others.

What problems we want to solve

1hourAday enables a new ecosystem that enables win-win relations

For social projects: Power up social projects through soft volunteer

We have seen a lot of social projects that still cannnot reach their max potential. If we can all just spend a few hours helping a social cause, together we can have a huge impact.

• This platform aims to remove all the barriers that now prevent people to spend a few time helping on a social project.
• We want to reinforce the "Get a Task Done" volunteer experience
• We want people to use their stregths to help others
• We want experts from everywhere collaborating with social projects

For people: Enable new environments that lets poeple improve their skills with real impact work

We have seen people frustrated about the following situations:

• Getting blocked and not being able to keep developing their professional career
• Gaining experience for a new role is hard (without real experience)
• Entering the job market is hard. (Entry requirements are too high and people don't have experience)
• Learning is limited to who you interact and you need to switch jobs to learn from other environment.
