Better World International has partnered with WATERisLIFE to help solve the world’s water crisis.
Global (01 July 2017) – Their real-time mobile app has gamified activism, creating a global trend of doing good while combining play with social impact.
Better World International is one of the first tech gaming nonprofits that is creating social change by revolutionizing how companies approach activism. The Good Cards, their first game on the market, is a real-time mobile app that inspires people to be kind to one another.
Using gamification, an up and coming trend, The Good Cards is bridging the gap between the physical and virtual world motivating people to take action for social good in a fun and meaningful way.
“We will be as big as Pokemon Go,” CEO Nazaruk says, “except we’re creating social impact. This project harnesses the power of the technology our youth are addicted to in an effective and practical way. We’re using the psychology of a multi-billion dollar market to take real action for the real issues we face.”
Better World International has teamed up with WATERisLIFE to use this innovative technology for making an impact in today’s water crisis.
“We’re excited to announce our first big partnership with WATERisLIFE. This is our chance to get one step closer to bringing clean water to the nearly 1 billion lives without it,” say Nazaruk. With this partnership, Better World will create a special in-game mission connected to a special batch of blue cards to #EnditNow.
With The Good Cards game (available for both iOS and Android), anyone has the ability to take action for social good, make a positive impact in other people’s lives and have some fun while they’re doing it.
Players have physical objects (like the blue WATERisLIFE cards) connected to in-game missions where they take action for various social causes, and pass the objects to challenge others to join in the action.
Once the card is received, the player scans the card in their mobile app and receives their mission to take action – adding to the “chain reaction of good” that’s already been started. And what’s impressive is, the progress of the card can be tracked through The Good Cards app, where users share their stories of action with other players.
The Good Cards is live and fully functional. Cards have already reached 18 countries and it’s only the beginning! Right now, Better World is running a Kickstarter that has surpassed its initial funding goal of $10,000 in just 10 days, on pace to create a really successful campaign.
During crowdfunding, people can pre-order The Good Cards at a variety of levels starting at only $2 for a single ‘good card.’
For $39, crowdfunders receive The Good Box – the flagship package, which includes:
- 12 of The Good Cards, allowing players to access 12 missions for changing the world.
- A Special Mission Wristband that activates secret missions where no card is passed.
- Dreamers Glasses, a symbol of global unity + giving access to special in-game missions.
