To support this biodiversity of grassroots initiatives, All for Climate's mission is to make climate and social justice action as accessible as possible by offering legal, administrative, community and fundraising support. \n\nIn the past three years we onboarded over 200 collectives in the network, and we raised and distributed nearly 2 million euros directly to where it is needed, on the ground, where the action is happening. \n\nSince it is hard for us to reach local activists in Africa, we have been working on setting up a sister structure in Africa, to fully push through on our mission of distributing funds to where they are really needed, and further decentralise the grassroots climate and social justice movement.\n\n![a4c-africa](https://i.postimg.cc/nzBq16XW/1-1.png)\n\nRESULTS SO FAR \ud83c\udf0e\n- We are hosting over 200 collectives, spread out of Europe and Africa.\n- We distributed close to 2 000 000 euros through our Fiscal Host Service, including the funds raised with Gitcoin.\n- We have incubated Regens Unite, Solarpunk Art Dao and 5+ other initiatives.\n- We partnered with Gitcoin and started the Climate Round.\n- We have offered a bridge between web3 and the real world and are constantly looking for new ways with ReFI Spring, ReFI DAO and Regens Unite. \n- We initiated a fiscal host and legal back office for projects and DAOs in Africa.\n- We started Art Lab, an ongoing process to obtain visuals for our DAO.\n- We started an ongoing monthly newsletter to put more collectives , DAOs and initiatives in the spotlight.\n\n![a4c-academies](https://i.postimg.cc/rmNKsc0q/4.png)\n\nWHAT\u2019S NEXT? [2023] \ud83c\udf3b\nOur main focus of 2023\n- completing and launching the sister organization in Africa\n- building foundations for a deeper support network via the All for Climate Academies and the Resilience Academy\n- set up a new service for our collectives to convert Crypto into Fiat\n- deeper research in how we can provide a legal back office for DAOs in Europe and Africa\n- launch a participatory budget in A4C for very small, very local collectives that have difficulties getting access to the funding they need\n\n\nAPPROACH \ud83c\udf33\n- recognise active citizens and their grassroots work as a public good\n- help climate projects embrace web3, starting with raising money with Gitcoin\n- organize Twitter Spaces to put the spotlight on those climate projects\n- provide accountability, reporting and transparency\n- make it easier for people to make a living working at the intersection of their Ikigai and climate justice.\n\n\n![follow the trees](https://i.postimg.cc/BQM4fS7s/IMAGE.png)\n\n\nHOW IT ALL STARTED \ud83c\udf31\nClimate activists from various movements and initiatives (e.g., Extinction Rebellion, Fridays for Future, Scientists Rebellion) discovered shared challenges that hindered their progress. They questioned why they had to waste time and resources creating non-profits, bank accounts, and handling accounting, when they could focus on activism instead. This led to the creation of \"All for Climate,\" a non-profit that supports all movements and initiatives for climate justice. \nThe organization hosts over 200 independent collectives, which are like mini DAOs. \nAll for Climate aims to bring together diverse initiatives for climate justice, identify common issues, and address them collaboratively as a community. \nIn December 2021, All for Climate partnered with Gitcoin to create a cause round for climate, which has attracted over 147 projects and raised over $3M for climate-related causes. \n\nJOIN US \ud83e\udec2\nOur community hub \u2192 https://discord.allforclimate.earth\nOur twitter account \u2192 https://twitter.com/all4climatedao\nOur Fiscal Host hub \u2192 https://opencollective.com/allforclimate\nOur monthly newsletter \u2192 https://news.allforclimate.earth/march-newsletter/\n\n\n![learn together, change together](https://i.postimg.cc/4NVNxsrq/1.png)\n\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "all4climatedao"}
