#ftww2026

The news might be overwhelmingly bad, but just because it can feel like the world is ending, doesn’t mean it has to. You can make a difference in one person’s life, and we can all do it together! Starting on May 13th, the day the finale airs, Good Omens fans from across the world will be volunteering in their local communities!

Join us!

The Plan:

 Volunteer your time between May 13th and May 20th.

 Report your hours to us by May 25th in this document and we’ll tally them all up and celebrate the differences we’ve made!

The Guidelines:

Volunteering can be anything from organizing a fundraiser to picking up litter!

Take photos only if it’s appropriate to do so, and ask everyone involved for permission before posting.

This week is not about financial donations, only your time.

Reported hours will be on the honor system. Check back here for details on how to report hours closer to the date.

Already volunteer regularly? We would love to count those hours!

If you want to participate but can’t during these dates, we would still love to hear about it! We will have a “general volunteer hours” count as well.

Some volunteer opportunities may have lengthy onboarding or training processes, or strict minimum hours requirements. Remember to check for this early!

Volunteering Ideas:

Food distribution through a food bank or community kitchen

Helping a neighbor or loved one with house or yard work

Watch your friend’s bookshop while he takes your car to Edinburgh

Visitations at elder care facilities

Watching a loved one’s kids while they have time for themself

Native language volunteer for new immigrants or refugees

Make hot chocolate for someone having a hard time remembering

Organize a forcing party to help your avoidant friends get important tasks done

Invasive species removal

Safe drug distribution programs

Offering your professional services to a non-profit (e.g. graphic design, web design, document editing)

Crisis hotlines

Trash pickup in public spaces

Link to some low physical demand suggestions

Please let us know if you have more suggestions for volunteering ideas. We would especially like to hear about ideas for people with physical or social limitations that might make more common opportunities difficult!

The end is just the beginning.

Help out a friend! Walk the neighbor's dog! Work at a food distribution! Anything you can do to enrich someone else's life, no matter how small, can make a difference!

Starting May 13th, we will post a link to a very simple google form that will include a field for the number of hours volunteered and optional fields to report the type of volunteering you did, and any additional hours you volunteered outside of May 13-May 20.

to enter your volunteer hours! Tomorrow the form will close and we'll tabulate all the hours people spent making the world better.

Have you signed up to volunteer yet? Reblog with ideas you have for volunteering or organizations in need of volunteers!

We are so happy to announce that because of this event, a total of 88.5 hours were spent helping others. 69.5 of which occurred during the official week dates of May 13-May 20.

People volunteered in administrative, educational, fund raising events, environmental, and personal assistance opportunities.

In a time when things look bleak and people may be feeling helpless, we are reminding ourselves that help is something we can always offer one another.

We are very aware that this post will be buried among trailer posts tomorrow so we're posting a little early.

Until

For the World Week!!
