We are a non-profit on a mission to empower grassroots organizers and activists with products and platform services that embolden humanity’s power to achieve collective liberation. We believe that frontline activists & organizers are a key source of societal progress, yet they are radically underserved. We’re here to change that. This fundraiser will launch our operations as an organization.

Our founding product is CECI the first free and private knowledge platform for building and sharing effective grassroots strategies. Strategies are built through our bespoke theory-of-change engine. CECI’s purpose is to help progress move closer to the speed of information on a platform that cares about your data ownership and privacy.

CECI will first launch across the U.S. serving the LGBTQIA rights and Gender Justice movements during this critical moment in history when far right coalitions are organizing to further destabilize and threaten these groups in 2025. LGBTQIA scapegoating contributes to the 18th consecutive year of declining global freedom. The U.S. remains home to over 70% of femicides in high-income countries.

CECI is a force-multiplier for strategy and innovation across these movements by creating a platform that:

✓ Leverages our bespoke Theory-of-Change engine to articulate tactics and strategy

✓ Convenes leaders digitally across the movement to learn effective strategies by helping them find others in their movement using similar tactics

✓ Notifies leaders as new innovations prove successful in other communities organizing for their movement

✓ Encourages off-platform activity to connect, collaborate and thus create more robust, decentralized networks so that any attack on our platform cannot stop the movement
