San Francisco, CA- DailyFeats, an online social platform for positive action, and Inspire USA Foundation, the 501c3 non-profit organization behind ReachOut.com, a place where teens and young adults can improve their understanding of mental health issues, develop resilience, build their coping-skills and increase help-seeking behavior, announced a partnership today to empower more people to share stories about how they made it through a tough time.
ReachOut.com will sponsor the new “!reachout” feat at DailyFeats, one of hundreds of actions for which DailyFeats users can earn points and rewards. Whenever someone shares their personal story at ReachOut.com, they can check in !reachout, magnify their actions by sharing that feat with friends, and work toward earning rewards for it. In turn, DailyFeats users will discover the !reachout feat at DailyFeats.com, visit ReachOut.com, and earn rewards for their positive actions there.
The collaboration is expected to bring energy and new visitors to both online communities. “This is an exciting opportunity for DailyFeats to help more people engage with ReachOut.com, and bring hope to struggling teens across the country,” said Veer Gidwaney, CEO of DailyFeats.
DailyFeats, a product of Energy Inside, is the leading social platform for positive actions — making doing good things easy, fun, and rewarding. It’s built on the idea that the world would be a better place if more people had the time and energy every day to accomplish feats: actions that are good for our bodies, minds, homes, and communities.
Whenever you do something good – whether you’re running, reading, volunteering, or any of hundreds of other actions– check it in at DailyFeats.com, where you can earn points, plan with friends, and find more good things to try. The goal is for you to live as well as you possibly can.
