Overview

Mission

To use storytelling, healing, organizing, and research to support social transformation and environmental justice.

What it reported doing in 2024

Regenerative movements - in 2024, regenerative movements launched the future cares, a cohort of care worker leaders from homecare, nursing, nursing homes, domestic work, and childcare-who completed a month of training and three months of coaching to heal and transform exploitative workplace conditions. We also continued the living school of the amazon (eva) with confeniae, engaging 46 indigenous youth leaders in a 9-month program on autonomous leadership and ancestral wisdom, launching the first stage of a collaborative documentary with the students.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 95% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
