About Small Actions Greater Good
A Social Responsibility Movement
We Are…
A community of passionate Small Business Owners who want to make the world a better place through our businesses while also contributing to our business growth and profitability. We are… a Social Responsibility Movement.
We believe that every action, no matter how small, can contribute to the greater good. That the power to truly make a difference does NOT belong only to large businesses and Corporations or Government Agencies.
Our Mission…
To provide education, resources, and training to empower Small Business Owners to do more effective social good that benefits their business, makes them proud of their efforts, and inspires others
Our Values…
Open-Minded
We are dedicated to embracing and supporting each other in identifying our own unique ways to contribute to the greater good without judgment or preferences. Small Actions Greater Good is all about how each Small Business Owner and his/her business will contribute in his/her own amazing and unique way.
Education
We commit to never stop learning and growing. We will keep up-to-date with Social Responsibility options and related news and research and will adapt out Social Responsibility efforts to best support our businesses, employees, customers, communities, and world.
Contribution
We truly embrace the core concept of Social Responsibility – that all companies can find ways, or Small Actions, to contribute to making the world better. And any action, no matter the size, is better than no action.
Collective Power
We believe that while the actions in our individual Small Businesses may not FEEL like a huge contribution that we see and believe in the bigger picture. That we believe our contributions as a group really DO make a difference. That one plus one equals so much more than two. That a Social Responsibility Movement is needed.
Community
We are convinced that all endeavors, no matter how small, become bigger, better and stronger when shared with a community of like-minded individuals who encourage, support, and learn from each other.

About the Founder
(In Her Own Words)
Tanya Quinn, Founder of Small Actions Greater Good
Hi, I’m Tanya Quinn, founder of Small Actions Greater Good, Social Responsibility Advocate, and co-owner of a small business. For over 20 years, across small businesses, nonprofits, corporations, and even my own ventures, I’ve been driven by one question: How can my efforts make a bigger impact?
No matter how much I worked, volunteered, or gave back, it never felt like enough—until we adopted our daugher. In that life-changing moment, I knew I had to find a way to make the world a better place, not just for her but for future generations. That realization fueled my passion to inspire others and create something bigger than myself.
Small Actions Greater Good began as an idea on a rainy morning and has grown into a movement. I believe that small business owners have the power to make a meaningful impact through small, intentional actions. With the Small Actions Framework, I provide simple, strategic tools to help businesses take socially responsible steps that benefit both their companies and their communities.
Together, we can create ripples of positive change—one small action at a time. Will you join me?
Tanya's Professional Bio
Tanya Quinn is a passionate advocate, speaker, trainer, and consultant in the field of small business social responsibility. As the founder of Small Actions Greater Good, she believes the power to create meaningful change isn’t reserved for large corporations or nonprofits. Small businesses, through intentional and strategic actions, can create a ripple effect of positive impact for their businesses, employees, communities, and the world.
With over 20 years of experience across small businesses, nonprofits, and corporations, Tanya has always been driven by a desire to make a difference. Her early career in environmental sciences and consulting exposed her to the principles of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), sparking a lifelong passion for social good. However, it wasn’t until the adoption of her daughter in 2016 that this passion became a clear mission. Inspired by the desire to leave a lasting legacy for her family and the world, Tanya left Corporate America to pursue desire to make more of a difference in the world.
Recognizing the unique challenges small businesses face compared to large corporations, Tanya developed the Small Actions Framework, a unique 5-step process for small business social responsibility designed to help small business owners take simple, strategic actions that maximize both social impact and business benefits. Her approach combines her expertise in process improvement, strategic development, and community engagement to provide tailored solutions that work within the realities of small business operations.
Through Small Actions Greater Good, Tanya has inspired countless small business owners to embrace socially responsible practices that not only make a difference but also strengthen their brand, improve employee relationships, and foster community loyalty. Her mission is clear: to prove that small actions, when done intentionally, can lead to a greater good.
Small Business Social Responsibility Definition
