A small act of friendship
Start with one good word.
You don’t need to be a matchmaker. You just need to care about someone.
- 01
Bring someone who knows you.
A Pal is the person open to meeting someone. A Handler is their trusted friend. You choose who helps and what that help looks like.
- 02
Give the profile a human point of view.
A photo from a good day. A thoughtful note. An interest you actually enjoy. Your friend contributes; you review what represents you.
- 03
Make an introduction, together.
Friends can spot a possibility and help open the conversation. The people being introduced choose whether to take it further.
Good relationships have a wider circle
Found your person?
Stay for your friends.
Being happy together can be the beginning of helping someone else. Share a photo they love. Notice a shared interest. Offer an introduction.
Small, thoughtful contributions give a friend something a profile alone can’t: someone in their corner.
Help opens a door.
It never pushes someone through.
The Oath of Goodwill asks every Handler to tell the truth, respect boundaries, and share only what’s theirs to share.
A contribution is a suggestion. An introduction is an invitation. The person at the centre gets a choice.
About the name
It started with a friend making an introduction.
Chelsea Handler told a story about a friend passing along her number. That small act inspired this idea: make it easier for people who care about you to help.

A good place to start
Think of one friend.
You probably already have.
