The Hopemakers is a global community and media organization reporting real stories of progress to replace dread & fear with hope & action.
We elevate good news while finding and supporting people who are building a better future (Hopemakers).
To us, that better future resembles a solarpunk utopia without waste, exploitation, or pollution… where humans, technology, and nature live together in harmony.
Become a member to learn about real stories of progress while elevating people and projects that are improving the world!
To break through the overwhelming majority of news that’s filled with doom and gloom, The Hopemakers looks for actual good news to remind us all that progress is still happening. These stories are told through daily videos, and are sent in a weekly roundup newsletter every Friday morning to all subscribers.
Every month, we also go on the ground to tell the story of an unsung hero improving their community (we’re calling them Hopemakers) through an awesome long form video. We then support these people with time, attention, and community-raised funding to elevate their project.
By joining us, you’re directly helping build a solarpunk world by supporting these solutions & projects. Your membership contributions help find, document, and elevate these projects. A monthly impact report explains exactly how your money is helping.
