$55,000 Goal
Lasting narrative change requires multiple spheres of influence, which is why Pollen is committed to growing, nurturing, and strengthening our region’s capacity for building narrative power. Investing in a strategy centered around narrative change means investing in our team of expert storytellers. To be better catalysts for narrative change in our communities, we spent the better part of 2022 restructuring our organization, investing in our team, and preparing for an executive director transition to guide Pollen on this new path. Read more about our process, reflections, and takeaways in our Bloom series.
Our goal to raise $55,000 by the end of 2022 to scale the impact of our work and continue investing in our team. Funds raised will go toward:
Stories encourage us to fight for each other when our beautiful and flawed humanity is threatened. Right now, those threats are numerous and compounding. That’s why Pollen exists — to create and share narratives of possibility that inspire us to imagine something better, connect us, and ready our hearts and minds for the work ahead.
Every story Pollen publishes, every event we host, and every job or action we share is an opportunity for the personal, collective, and systemic transformation that narrative change requires. When you donate to Pollen, you make it possible for transformational change to take root in your community—the kind that shifts power and makes way for a new narrative that reflects our shared humanity.
The financial support of Pollenites like you power our work to:
We know Pollen is just one part of a larger ecosystem of change. Our region is full of visionaries, organizers, collectives, organizations and leaders of all ages who are pushing for a better future in so many ways. We are proud to be part of that ecosystem, doing our part to help our communities get ready for the future we need.
Thank you for being in community with us.
