Advance a culture of purpose, creativity, innovation, and — for many — even faith. Join today! Like-minded Communities We invite activists to organize into local groups in order to find mutual encouragement and support in reaching their local communities. Your group may choose to meet as a book club, a campus club, a small group, or some other format. The mission is always the same, but the approach depends entirely on you.
