Helping Grow A Sense of Identity and Inclusivity,
One Student Organization at a Time
Mission
We support K-12 organizations that include student representatives of diverse groups, student allies, and adult allies.
Our goal is to celebrate culture and history, promote academic achievement, inspire community and understanding, and teach leadership skills through interactive experiences inside and outside of schools.
The population of the United States is a rich tapestry of intersecting identities. Its members have varied histories – many are descendants of families who arrived many generations ago, and others are from families who recently migrated from other countries. The unique identity of Americans is further shaped by the intersection of various factors like gender, socioeconomic status, and more. To have a more understanding and connected society, we believe young people need opportunities to learn about (1) their own identity, and (2) the culture and history of others.
Our Reason Why
Students in grades K-12 who share culture (e.g., language, food, music, dress, values, and beliefs) related to a common identity connection and shared history. Read more.

What We Provide
We provide each club with dedicated pages on our platform where they can showcase their projects and causes, making it easier to attract and manage donations. We amplify the reach of fundraising campaigns through broad promotional opportunities across our networks, including social media and newsletters. Our intuitive interface allows organizations to track their financial progress in real-time, offering a hassle-free experience that lets them focus on their core activities rather than the intricacies of fundraising.

Building a community of support is crucial for the success of any student organization. Our Sponsor Meetings offer a structured platform for sponsors to interact, exchange ideas, and collaborate. These gatherings serve as a nexus for encouragement and collaborative dialogue, helping sponsors of different student organizations to share best practices, address challenges, and explore synergistic opportunities. The end goal is to build a stronger, more supportive environment that enriches the student experience.

Transparency and accountability are core values of our organization, and our Nonpartisan Status Reports service is designed to uphold these principles. We provide regular updates on the progress made by districts and communities in creating systemic changes needed for an inclusive world. These reports, free from any political or ideological bias, give an impartial view of how well local educational systems are doing in promoting diversity and inclusion. They serve as both a benchmark for communities and a resource for stakeholders looking to advocate for change.
