That’s why a percentage of each website project completed with Soulgood gets donated to charities and organizations making a positive and honest impact worldwide.
My minimum donation is 5% of your project cost. If you want to personally increase that donation, or you would prefer to donate to a specific cause, just let me know. It would be a most welcome conversation.
I love working with like-minded individuals who are passionate about wellness, hospitality, and the arts.
