ADVOCACY
“I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change.
I am changing the things I cannot accept.”

The Wish Project
In response to the fall of Roe, we are supporting the work of the wish collective by staging a reading of their play, "the wish," with NYC birth workers and other members of the community in October. Writers Dena Igusti, Julia Specht, Phanésia Pharel, Justice Hehir, Nia Akilah Robinson have created an amazingly unique piece that combines art and activism. We encourage everyone (especially those in ban states) to consider hosting their own readings of, "the wish." #thewishplay
Bechdel Project Approved
There is so much fantastic work happening in the world. Bechdel Project Approved is a small way we want to help spread the word about mission-aligned storytelling! Let us know about feminist and Bechdel Test passing stories that have the power to change our culture so we can shout about it!
Free Community Space
Due to recent and ongoing events that threaten the safety of the majority of Americans, we're providing free space for community groups and organizations who need to gather, heal, and organize in order to build a better world.
We were thrilled to host our first community event with this amazing group of social workers. If you need space, please get in touch!
Whether it's supporting mission-aligned projects through fund-raising campaigns or engaging the public, community leaders, and storytellers on the issues, we are constantly seeking out ways to stimulate conversations, build coalitions, and expand impact.
Reach out with your ideas of what you'd like to see us do next!
PAST INITIATIVES
Hadzabe School Supply Fundraiser
We believe education fuels story-telling. So when we were approached by our friends in East Africa with a request to help them with basic school needs for 65 children in their community we felt honored to help. The funds we were able to raise provided them with notebooks, pens, and shoes.
