Event Manager

Support a startup reinventing Fridays to be a force for good

Social Friday reinvents the end of the workweek by transforming unproductive Friday hours into a global tradition of purpose, teamwork, and impact—connecting businesses, nonprofits, and communities through hands-on engagement.

Fridays are the least productive time of the week. Work slows down, focus fades, and hours are lost. Social Friday isn’t just a project—it’s a movement. A global tradition in the making that transforms the least productive hours of the week into moments of connection, impact, and purpose, where doing good becomes a habit. Beyond one-time events, Social Friday is designed to scale into a lasting global movement, embedding social impact into work culture and everyday life.

How It Works

A scalable platform connects businesses, NGOs, and volunteers, transforming Fridays into a global force for change through engagement, collaboration, and gamification. By integrating leaderboards, challenges, badges, and rewards, Social Friday keeps participation exciting and fosters a culture where social impact becomes part of the routine.

This isn’t just about reducing disengagement. It is about transforming the way society, nonprofits, and businesses connect, creating a future where social impact is a shared responsibility, embedded into everyday life. Social Friday has the power to turn the least productive time of the week into the most meaningful, a global tradition, the Olympics of Giving Back.

Role (Volunteer): Event Manager.

Role Description: GOT A KNACK FOR CREATING UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES? LET’S TURN THAT INTO IMPACT.

If you’re not just planning events but crafting moments that truly matter, then you’re exactly where you belong.

This isn’t about organizing another coffee break or corporate lunch. It’s about creating a space for connection, community, and purpose. It’s about bringing people together to challenge the norm, spark meaningful conversations, and transform Fridays into something far greater than just the end of the workweek.

If you believe events can be powerful tools for change—not just logistics, but experiences that leave a mark—then Social Friday is ready for your ideas, your energy, and your leadership.

Together, we’ll redefine what it means to come together, give back, and make every Friday a celebration of doing good.

Welcome to the Olympics of Giving Back. And you’re about to lead the opening ceremony.
