Make a Gift to Support Good Work
We support people and initiatives building a more democratic, just, and joyful future.
This year, 2025, we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary!
From the original founding principles that sparked the fellowship, to today’s focus on building solidarity and deep democracy aligned with Just Transition, GWI has consistently stood for a future that is just and caring.
We offer many pathways to start practicing that future right now, with mutual support and inspiration. With workshops, trainings, and events; the Greenhouse, our beloved hub in Kingston; Kingston Common Futures, a new community fund launched this year; and our growing fiscal sponsorship program, there are myriad options for people and organizations to get involved and resourced.
Now more than ever, the times are calling for a different way of working, a renewal of commitment to true participatory collaboration and the practice of everyday democracy, to build and rebuild the foundation for healthy, thriving, interconnected local communities.
Your gift is the solid ground that allows us to support and cultivate Good Work.
