Make A DIFFERENCE
FOR YOUNG ACTIVISTS
What would it take to launch launch your idea?
What reservations do you have about partnering with a religious institution?
Many have the monetary capital, the people power, members with the community connections, even the physical spaces to house your project.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. worked from within religious institutions and bridged gaps with different faith communities to achieve a common goal of passing the Civil Rights Act. We believe these types of partnerships are vital to achieving real progress.
How can we move forward?
We get it, the fact of the matter is, 40% of young adults say they have experienced trauma from organized religion (Springtide Research Institute 2022).
We suspect that those working in progressive activism would have much higher rates. Yet there are religious institutions out there eager to participate in truly helping their communities but with a lack of connection to the issues you are working on.
What if you could partner with a faith community?
who aligns with your values and wants to help build your project?
Our training program will teach you how to make these strategic partnerships and give you real-world practice to apply the lessons we offer. Additionally, we’ll help you write a grant proposal and award your project up to $10,000 to get it off the ground. We provide a structured space that teaches you how to foster effective strategic partnerships with congregations. We have designed our curriculum around our RISK framework – How to realize the stories being told, Immerse ourselves in changing that narrative, Start creating new stories, and Keep it going in the future.
