WHY

Whether issues of climate, food systems, or displacement, we see more and more time, attention, and resources spent searching for solutions to the worlds hardest problems.

But what if the solutions are already here? We believe the answers are in our communities and all around us: they’re simply disconnected from the resources they need (and from one another).

WHAT

We believe that when equipped with our greatest resource of all—one another—each and every one of us is capable of supporting our capacity to thrive. So we’re weaving a multi-sided ecosystem that empowers us all, where we are, with what we have, to be the greatest lever for change.

We innovate social, technical, and financial tools that support our ability to collectively innovate on, resource, and apply solutions to the world’s most pressing issues.

Our first tool is Open Impact, a platform that coordinates and connects on-the-ground efforts, transparently measures their progress, and matches them with the resources they need to scale—whether it’s capital, skills, or knowledge. We’re currently modeling and refining with 170 organizations in 16 countries.

WHO

We are designers, developers, social systems architects, economists, storytellers, and movement builders innovating social, technical, and financial tools that support our ability to collectively innovate on, resource, and apply solutions to the world’s most pressing issues.
