I have found rewarding work thanks to your e-lists. Thanks so much for all your great work! – EC

Good Work makes looking for work interesting and hopeful. Thanks Good Work for being a positive presence for those seeking to make meaningful livelihood decisions. – Gonzalo Duarte

I found the Good Work service to be well-designed and valuable. I think that it plays a unique & essential role ... for finding the ecologically and socially relevant groups and opportunities for experience. – W. Glenn Pierce, Ph.D.

Thank you for all of your hard work and commitment to such a practical and inspiring tool. I went from a year of work pain to work that felt like play. I continue to appeciate learning about all sorts of great opportunities out there – JF

I just wanted to say thank you for existing. This site is amazing and it makes me happy to know it's here. It makes me feel so much better that there are good jobs out there for people like me who care about making this earth a better place for our children. I can't say thank you enough to you guys for all the hard work that you do. It means a lot. THANK YOU from here to the stars. – Karolinka Zawadzka

Thank you for the wonderful service, and helping me get an interesting, fulfilling job this summer at a small organic farm / B&B. – MB

I just wanted to take a moment and tell you what a great job you are doing. I have responded to and forwarded many of your emails so their is much fruit being shared. ... You have my appreciation and support. – TA

Just wanted to say how much I really appreciate you adding additional links around the same subject area.  Very enlightening.  Thank you. – JJS

Through Goodwork I heard of a job that was halfway across the country. I applied online, was offered a phone interview, and got the gig. Because of Goodwork I was able to work in a part of the country that I may have never had the opportunity to even visit. – AB

I learned of a great many great organizations I didn't know existed. I use so many resources ... yours is one of my favourites because I know I'm looking at green, ethical, etc. – JES

Thanks for your good work ... in getting many of us connected to events, jobs .... and other people involved in the things that speak most dearly to our hearts! – SH

How doyou go from being a broke university grad, to an even more broke ski bum, to a well-connected environmentally aware and socially responsible human being? – DC

I have unsubscribed at this moment in time because I have created my own eco-job. I hope that this will be fruitful and that I will someday be able to post available jobs on your website. I will still be visiting your site to find other resources and information. – CW


I just wanted to let you know I LOVE Planet-Friendly and GoodWork. I have found out about many great opportunities – some I've been able to capitalize on, some it was just great to know they existed. One example: last summer there was a chance to help out on a volunteer organic farm, and having never done such a thing before I wasn't too sure initially. Your guide for deciding about such organic farm opportunities was invaluable. I ended up going, and was very very happy I did so. I made new friends and contacts, learned lots, and plan to go back again this summer!

So just so you know, the work you are doing is invaluable. I have become increasingly concerned about human activities and the environment over the last few years, but practically everyone around me thinks I'm overly worried. I'm not, and it is great to learn of other people's activities that fit with my values and concerns. Community is critical!

It was your article 'Caring too much, caring too little' that prompted me to write to you. I know I can sometimes be a bit out of balance and worry too much, but have found that when I ACT in accordance with my values (i.e. volunteer with environmental and animal rights groups etc) then each day is so much more meaningful, and I am much more in the present moment. There is nothing like the present!

– Heather Leong
