Fostering Connections and Cultural Exchange Around the Digital Campfire.

We understand that the nonprofit landscape is vast and diverse, with countless organizations striving to make a difference. However, smaller nonprofits often face challenges in gaining visibility and accessing the resources they need to effectively carry out their missions. The Give: Awareness project aims to bridge this gap by putting these nonprofits at the forefront, offering them a space to showcase their initiatives, connect with a wider audience, and share their missions with people from communities that want to support them.

By promoting the lifechanging work of lesser-known nonprofit projects, we encourage a more inclusive approach to social impact. Every organization / person / project featured on Give: Awareness has a unique story to tell, bringing diverse perspectives, innovative solutions, and deep connections to the communities they serve. Together, we can amplify their voices, drive positive change, and build a more equitable and sustainable future.

stories from the spaces in between

The Give Awareness database is carefully curated, hand selected and peer-vetting, focusing on nonprofits dedicated to supporting and uplifting native communities and the environment. By centering these organizations, we aim to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for the indigenous cultures and ecological preservation efforts taking place. We then share these works mapped on native land, and directly within the community they are making the impact on the ground.

The project then goes beyond just providing information. We strive to create a dynamic and supportive ecosystem by facilitating connections and collaborations between nonprofits, individuals, corporations, and other stakeholders. Through our platform, users can not only discover and learn about these organizations but also find opportunities to volunteer, donate, or contribute their skills and resources to further their causes. We also work with the projects to produce unique films and media campaigns, sharing across this, and all online networks to help them make the largest impact they can.
