Introducing: Horyou Platform

To bring true change to people’s lives, we need a common place accessible to everyone. A place where people can share ideas, be inspired and help each other. Today’s social networks is plagued with narcissism, social negativity and polarization. For that purpose, the Horyou Platform was created, a novel platform for social change. Through technology, innovation and advocacy of social entrepreneurship, Horyou aims to foster global positive interactions amongst its member organizations, users and personalities.

Horyou Social Network: a Place for Everyone 

We have already launched Horyou.com, the social network for social good, gathering individuals, social innovators, organizations and personalities to take part in the community and inspire each other through social good news & actions. The social network has a growing community of more than 250,000 changemakers and 1500 organizations from 180 countries. Organizations can broadcast their social activities through actions in the platform. Anyone can show support to social good actions taken by organizations through giving Lights, and observing progress of projects that support social good. Unlike traditional social network platforms, Lights are not associated to sensationalism, egocentric or pure consumerism content. Lights are bestowed upon the actions towards shaping and building a better world, bringing a positive change to the humanity.

More than a million lights have been allocated and given to the social good news and actions shared by the Horyou community. Lights are acknowledgement of support. They are not any form of currency. 

Horyou Partners: Enabling Corporate to Social Change 

We will soon introduce Horyou partners, corporate entities that take part in the Horyou platform through their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program. Companies can leverage the community and access a diverse set of organisations to ensure the most meaningful impact of their philanthropic and CSR activities, being able to leverage the Horyou technology of social networking activities while benefiting from Spotlight, the first digital currency promoting economic inclusion enabling to support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Investing in Social Impact Strategy with Horyou Partners will set the business into a Positive Circular Economy Companies will pay a membership fee to have access to Horyou platform and promote their products and services. Of the fee, 50% of the proceedings will be converted into spotlights, to support actions and organizations in the Horyou community.

Horyou Marketplace: Commodities for Social Good 

Participants in Horyou social network can buy and sell products and services via the Horyou marketplace. Companies can promote their products / services / soft commodities, and organizations can buy / sell among the Horyou members - creating financial opportunities in a transparent fashion. To ensure quality, the Horyou marketplace will be freely available to all individuals and organizations when they are buyers. To be sellers, the individuals has to have a Horyou profile with level 10 or above and with more than 1000 Lights received for non-profit organizations.
