Social Friday

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. The numbers are staggering:

• Unproductive Friday hours cost the U.S. economy $1.9 trillion annually.
• 1 in 4 people worldwide feel lonely, struggling to reach their full potential.
• The U.S. Surgeon General calls loneliness an epidemic, costing employers $154 billion yearly.
• Remote and hybrid work has widened the gap, leaving employees more disconnected than ever.
• Societal tensions are rising, creating an urgent need for initiatives that bring people together.

Governments debate the four-day workweek—but what if, instead of subtracting a day from work, we added purpose to Fridays?

We face a choice: -Accept the status quo and keep losing trillions. +Or flip the script, turning Fridays into a force for good.

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.

Want to Be the Reason People Feel Welcome, Seen, and Inspired?

You’re not just a communicator, you’re a connector. The kind of person who knows how to turn a quick answer into a meaningful moment.

At Social Friday, we’re redefining how people spend their time and how they come together. Through purpose-driven events that flip Friday afternoons into something meaningful, we bring companies, nonprofits, and individuals into a space where doing good becomes a lifestyle.

As our Community Coordinator, you’ll be the friendly face and steady hand that guides participants through the experience. From the first question to the final thank-you, you’ll make sure everyone feels like they belong.

What You’ll Do

• Be the first point of contact for participants—friendly, helpful, and clear
• Guide people through what Social Friday is, how to join, and what to expect
• Support companies and nonprofits with onboarding and logistics
• Gather participant feedback and stories to help us grow
• Work closely with the Event Manager to ensure a seamless experience
• Keep the Social Friday vibe alive: warm, purposeful, and energizing

What You Bring

• Excellent communication skills, written and spoken
• A welcoming, people-first mindset
• Organized and responsive, you follow up, follow through, and keep things moving
• Experience in community engagement, hospitality, customer care, or social initiatives
• A passion for human connection and social impact

We’re looking for someone who gets people, someone who doesn’t just answer questions, but helps every participant feel part of something bigger.

Social Friday is the Olympics of Giving Back. And you’re the one who makes sure no one sits in the stands alone.
