WHAT WE DO
OUR MISSION
We fuel young people to change the world.
DoSomething was founded with the goal of making volunteerism as cool as sports for young people like you. Thirty-one years later, we’ve managed to build one of the largest youth-centered movements for doing good, and a whole lot more! Today, we have over 1 million active members ages 13-25 committed to leading the change they want to see. Together, we’re leading a movement.
We are your coach, champion and connector for creating a safer, kinder, and fairer world, no matter where you are in your impact journey.
