We Are a Growing Multiracial and Multigenerational Community of Donor-Activists
We envision a just and sustainable world where everyone can safely and freely determine their own futures.
Build a Home at the Edge of What’s Possible
There is no one way to engage with this community – and that’s by design. Bring your unique gifts, connections, personal missions, and growth edges to the work. Members can engage as doers, collaborators, or delegators, and roles can shift over time.
Connect
We are a home for values-aligned people to create relationships that last a lifetime. Connect with peers and build a multigenerational, multiracial community of donor organizers inspired to transform their power into collective action.
Grow
We equip members to deepen their learning, grow their skills, and unlock the full range of their financial, social, and political capital in solidarity with movements. Utilize our trainings, webinars, and workshops to sharpen your organizer, advocate, and influencer skills.
Fund
All our members contribute to our collective funding and those who want to explore more deeply have the opportunity to join our grantmaking initiatives, where our members make funding decisions together in partnership with expert staff and in conversation with movement and thought leaders.
Mobilize
Advocate together to fuel progressive policy and political transformation at the local, state, and national level.
