    The location is great - perfect for our group members. We meet monthly at SGP and LOVE it. It is very comfortable, attractively remodeled, clean, and with wonderful natural lighting. It is a flexible space, with easy access to a large kitchen. The staff are friendly, professional and try to accommodate any requests they can. Payment is easy. This is a very special local community space!

    Social Good Place has been such a valuable resource for our organization! Having a welcoming space to host meetings, lead workshops, and bring people together for events has been invaluable. I really appreciate the community-minded atmosphere and the opportunities Social Good Place creates for local organizations and businesses to connect and grow. It's also been amazing having a mail service and other awesome building perks. Parking is easy and the local shops are an added bonus. Highly recommend!

    ORPIB was our second founding member and we're so happy that you all are sticking with us upstairs in our co-working space and continuing to hold events here. 🫶

    Kind staff, beautiful space, and an amazing place to hold events. I run a monthly event here and it's such a relief to not have to worry about if the space can provide what I need. Don't sleep on SGP—it's a great venue!

    Leif! We're so happy that you brought your unique event to our venue! We look forward to growing it in partnership for a long time.

    I've had a wonderful experience as a member of Social Good Place. What started as a search for a private office quickly became much more than just finding workspace. My private office is comfortable, functional, and perfectly suited to my needs. I also appreciate the variety of co-working and shared office spaces available to members and their guests. One of the things that truly sets SGP apart is the people. Janine Winters, Community & Marketing Director, makes me feel welcome every day. I came here looking for an office, but thanks to Janine and the broader SGP community, I found a genuine sense of belonging. The community culture is exceptional. Whether in person or online, members actively share information, resources, opportunities, and encouragement. There is a strong spirit of collaboration that makes SGP feel like a true community rather than simply a workplace. I also love the location. The neighborhood is highly walkable, with easy access to shops, grocery stores, and other local businesses. The building itself offers excellent amenities, including an exercise room, welcoming kitchen areas, and a sauna that I look forward to using. Most importantly, being a member has improved my quality of life. Social Good Place has helped me achieve a healthier balance between work, personal life, leisure, and mental well-being. I'm grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to anyone looking for more than just office space.
