3things has a whole new look!

 Since 2008, 3things has been the asking young Australians: what are 3 things that you can do to help change the world? We’ve had thousands of people share their 3things, building on the philosophy that we can all make the world a better place, whether we have 3 minutes, 3 weeks or more. The idea is whilst our actions alone may seem small or insignificant, together we can make a massive difference.

Fast-forward to 2014, and we’ve just launched a brand new website, designed to give young people their daily fix of inspiration to change the world, wherever they are. Fully mobile-responsive, 3things.org.au will curate the best and most interesting social change ideas and trends from around the world into bite-sized chunks to make living more consciously easy and fun.

You can get inspired by suggested 3things actions to change the world, and add them to the list – search by what you’re passionate about, how long you’ve got, or what’s hot. And for the first time the site empowers & supports you to do your own fundraising, with ideas, resources and direct links to causes they care about.

Good things come in threes. Spread the word! www.3things.org.au
