About Us

Our Purpose

Our organization's purpose is to be a catalyst for our neighbors into taking action on matters of equality and conscience to bring about a fairer, more equitable, and nourishing community.

We work towards our purpose by connecting local organizations with impassioned activists and neighbors, and educating our members on impactful current local actions through our CTA (Calls To Action) newsletter that we send out via email .
