Help us defend against government destruction and rebuild the future

We the Builders is a nonprofit civic tech project committed to strengthening public service, fighting misinformation, and monitoring efforts that undermine the federal government and our democratic institutions.

Your donation will help us:

Expand our civic coverage to include more parts of government and provide timely, factual information people rely on.
Convene experts to develop a blueprint to rebuild federal capacity, while partnering with policy and technical leaders to assess institutional damage and create actionable plans.
Produce trustworthy, accessible content through vetted articles, newsletters, explainers, and guides that empower people to understand and engage with government systems.
Support the federal workforce by providing a platform for public servants whose experiences are often silenced or erased. Through secure communications and storytelling, we’re helping federal employees share their truth.
Rebuild trust and community by collecting stories that highlight the human impact of government and public service. We believe policy only matters if people can see how it affects their lives.
Track shifts in transparency and accountability across federal digital infrastructure and administrative decision-making. We’ll identify breakdowns and help the public understand what’s being lost and why it matters.
Create tools that allow the public to report issues with federal websites and services, and track progress toward solutions.

Your support matters

Supporting We the Builders brings institutional expertise directly to the public. Your contribution helps:

Make sense of government during times of change and uncertainty
Fill critical information gaps left by shrinking or silenced agencies
Monitor the state of public services and systems so we know what needs fixing and how
Empower the public with data, context, and tools to take informed action

Together, we can hold the line against disinformation and decline, and move toward a better, more resilient government that works for everyone.

While we await final 501(c)(3) status, We the Builders is operating under the fiscal sponsorship of Good Trouble Project. Your donation is fully tax-deductible and helps us build a lasting foundation for truth and transparency.
