A solidarity program where companies finance and sponsor digital solutions for dedicated Belgian associations. Kern4Good is the impact hub of KERN-IT: digital at cost for associations, funded by social sponsoring.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together: this is what digital solidarity is all about.
Without budget, the sponsored cohort. With a budget, four tiers at cost, from 1 200 to 8 000 EUR, from the launch website to the complete website.

Join the collective →Kern4Good is a solidarity program by KERN-IT, our Belgian software engineering agency, whose web hub is KernWeb. We believe that technology only holds value when it serves humanity.
Technology only holds value when it serves humanity and social progress. This conviction is the cornerstone behind everything we do.
We ensure a rigorous selection of committed Belgian associations, working in cohorts to provide structured, high-quality support.
KERN-IT builds these websites with zero profit margin, charging only the direct costs. This ensures total financial transparency.
Our success is built on a synergy of forces between companies (sponsors), non-profits (beneficiaries), and KERN-IT (technical operator).
The program tackles the digital divide on the associations' side. It starts with what it can deliver today, and says what comes next.
Kern4Good operates through cohorts of selected non-profits. KERN-IT develops these websites at cost, with zero profit margin.
Companies fund the cohort through a transparent sponsorship system. Small non-profits are at the heart of the program: they can contribute according to their means, with no obligation or minimum requirement.
A cohort is five associations moving forward together. This year's is funded by sponsors, Source Hub's is brought by a partner, and yours exists as soon as you bring five associations or fund it.

The associations selected this year, funded by sponsor companies. Sponsors join during the year; each website starts when its funding is there. Everything depends on the companies' response: neither date nor delivery guaranteed.

Source Hub, the non-profits' group purchasing platform, gathers the five associations: that is what gives the reduced rate. The cohort starts as soon as five have registered; you pay nothing before.

Every pack goes in full to the solidarity pool, which pays the websites' days of work at cost. The list is updated with every new sponsor. The number of websites funded and their calendar depend on the companies that respond: nothing is guaranteed until the money is there.

A campaign buys attention for a few weeks. Social sponsoring buys a lasting association between your brand and a concrete result. What it gives, what it costs, who it suits.
Three words, three frameworks, three accounting treatments. What sets them apart, what Belgian law says, and which one to choose depending on what your company expects in return.
What can be counted (visits, mentions, content), what can be told (the associations' voice), and how the end-of-cohort report puts both together without exaggerating. With a sample dashboard.

Associations must meet the following criteria:

If sponsors are lacking, it stays at the head of the list for what comes next, or chooses a tier of the at-cost website ladder.
