Creativity Empowered by Community

"We have to ask ourselves: am I just consuming life, or am I actually cultivating life? Am I bringing life to my neighborhood, to my community, to my city—or am I just consuming it?"

Summit Camp Highlights

This year was our third biennial Organizer Summit—a three-day event for organizers around the world to meet face-to-face, support and learn with each other. You may have seen snippets of a marching band, s'mores roasting by a campfire, and yes, this image above. We're also celebrating our 10th anniversary!
